I suddenly began getting the error message:

Please upgrade to the latest xorg-server.
Thanks for the reply. I did upgrade to the latest xorg-server. (It is
now at 1.5.3-2). In fact, as I mentioned previously, I tried
reinstalling all packages under the X11 category. However, this
doesn't seem to fix things.
I have a suspicion that my /usr/X11R6/lib/X11 directory is somehow
corrupted. An "ls" there shows fewer directories that on another
machine where this seems to work. On my (problem) machine:
$ ls /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/
app-defaults lbxproxy rstart xdm xkb xsm
fs proxymngr twm xinit xserver
Strangely, no fonts/ directory! On another machine which I use where X
seems to be working fine, I see a whole bunch of other directories...
The current version doesn't have/use /usr/X11R6.... It uses just plain
/usr for X stuff now, along with a modular X installation. See the
anouncements.
