DB-

Did you ever actually install X?  If not, instead of typing "startx" you
need to type "XF86Setup" and if that doesn't work either install the VGA
server via dselect or type "xf86config" to get X running.

If you had X installed previously, try "XF86Setup" at the command prompt
and check out your settings to see what's crashing X.
