This happened to me too - X went blank when I started it and I coulnd't even
get another console to kill it.
All I could think of was to get the cd and do an 'upgrade' - in the
installer I fiddled with the X confg part to force it to overwrite the X
settings but left everything else alone. it came up fine after that. If I
did it now I would try to start it in run level 3 (dosen't start X at boot
time) and run drakX or whatever it's called to make new X settings.
