are you starting X with 'startx' or xdm (or have you tried both)?

is there anything in .xsession.errors?

what versions (potato is not specific enough) of the x packages and 
window managers are you using?

X is working well on potato systems, so something more speicifc
is the problem.  Post and we'll help.
