I have looked in the XFree68.0.log and I don't see any errors.  I see a few
warnings on:

Option "power_saver" is not used
A whole bunch of modes that it didn't like
and
Cannot Shadow and accelerated frame buffer

Would any of these cause Xwindows not start?  I didn't anything that could
be classified as an error.

I have see X die suddenly due to your resolution set to high, try dropping
the color and resolution down. Also if you look in /var/log/XFree86.log.
Xfree   is pretty good at reporting errors. Also which version of X are you
trying to run that would help as well.
