Thanks you guys, but there is still something (in your posts?) that I 
am missing.
I have gone to /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers and inserted the line 
:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X vt9 (to make tty8 the active one).
and done all the things the FAQ tells me to do to get X working for me 
as user.
The closest I have come is to enter "Xwrapper -vt8", when I get the 
familiar tiny wire mesh screen, but no progress beyond that.
I am obviously close - but no cigar.
Your recommendations?  Please?  Pretty please?
