Did you ever use XFree86 before?
If not try 3.3.6 first to see how things work (you can  use
/stand/sysinstal -> postinstall configurations -> ...
and when installation is done type
# XF86Setup
(this will produce a script in /etc/XF86Config - have a
look at that too)
after this you will see how you can elaborate and update
your X-Windows.
Ah yes, to start x do
# startx
