Hi Adam,

After rebooting today, I had the same problem.  It appears that a recent
change messed up the shell script /usr/bin/startx.  To work around the
problem, I changed the following lines:

        if [ -f $userserverrc ]; then
            defaultserverargs=$userserverrc
        elif [ -f $sysserverrc ]; then
            defaultserverargs=" "
        fi

To:

        if [ -f $userserverrc ]; then
            defaultserverargs=$userserverrc
        elif [ -f $sysserverrc ]; then
            #defaultserverargs=$sysserverrc
            defaultserverargs=" "
        fi

If you need any help, please don't hesitate to send me an email.
