the apm error shouldn't be causing any errors with your x-server

your /etc/fstab most likely looks similar to this:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/hda1 / reiserfs notail 0 1
/dev/hda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/hdc /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
you want it to look similar to this:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 / reiserfs notail 0 1
/dev/sda5 none swap sw 0 0
/dev/scd0 /media/cdrom0 iso9660 ro,user,noauto 0 0
now we have to tell grub about the changes as well.
you need to change a line inside of /boot/grub/menu.lst:
you may have different numbers after hda, but just make sure it looks
similar to this:
# kopt=root=/dev/sda1 ro vga=0x318
save changes to this file, and run "update-grub"
reboot
