Regarding the second item, you can allso (as root in an xterm) run
dpkg-reconfigure --frontend=dialog debconf and there choose dialog as
your default frontend. And thereafter try to reinstall xserver-xorg
with dpkg -i (the errors you got in the first place from that command
are I think related to the fact that dpkg -i calls upon debconf which
tries to connect to the xserver and fails cause it doesnt have
permission to do so).
