Hi Kent,
I received the same error message when I removed .Xauthority.
However, towards the end of he process it said that couldn't
find .Xauthority
Thanks,

Hi Antony,
I logged in as root and typed "startx". This seemed to work as it
took me to roots desktop.
When I logged in as me (paul) and I typed "startx" I received the
error message
xauth: timeout in locking authority file /home/paul/.Xauthority
"rm /home/paul/.Xauthority"
then try again.
