Further information please.
Exaxcly how are you tryig to start X?
Any error messages.
Which DM dispay manager; xdam, gdm, kdm or ?) are you using and which
desktop?

FYI I've run xdm for ages, well since debian-spud and the whole gdm/kdm
debacles and over that time I've run tvm, light, ice and now xfce4 for
jessie-ascii & beowuff and it just worked on all the systems with heads.

So, we'll need a bit more information pls.
