Help: Xserver errors



I am currently running Debian 2.0 and during the setup I had
succesfully setup the Xserver for my Matrox Millenium II video card
(using XF86Setup and it successfully starts the server and provides a
screen for me to run the video timing program and save the
configuration file). When I run startx from the shell I get an error
stating that the color depth was incorrect. I have tried all the
available color depths and I know for a fact that 32 bpp works because
I've run RH 5.1 on the same machine. Here is the error message:

----- error message -----

.

.
(**) ET4000W32: Graphics device ID:"Primary Card"
(**) ET4000W32: Minitor ID:"Primary Monitor"
(**) FontPath set to "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc:unscaled, ..."
(**) ET4000W32: Unsupported color depth (32)

*** None of the configured devices were detected. ***

Fatal server error:

_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect:Can't connect:errno=111
giving up.
xinit: Connection refused (errno 111): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): server error.

----- end of error message -----

Any help/suggestions would be great.

Thanks in advance,

Dinesh
