Fellow penguins, Xers, and Wino's,
 
I'm trying to get X running so I can run Wine (windows emulator)
 
I have wine installed as it came with RH6 but when I run this it says
"can't open display: (none specified)".   I'm trying to figure out whatever documentation I can find and as far as I can tell, it needs X to be running, which takes me to the problem with X.
 
I have run XF86Config and that didn't help.  I can never get past the gray screen. It just sits there forever until I type ctrl-alt-pagedown.
 
I see a message at the end of the XF86Config program that says I can now run 'startx' so I'm starting to get confused here. I have always been able to run startx and am not intending to mess with that.
 
I keep reading of people who have problems with X but never read of any who are successful. Have any of you got X to work?   How about WINE?
 
Any help  or hints?
