Rob,

That's not the problem.  He said he is booting to runlevel 3, getting
a bash prompt, then running /tmp/start_ws.  That should bring up
Xwindows and give him a login.

The question I have, is whether the screen is completely blank,
or if he has a grey screen with a cursor, but no login screen.

The answer to that question will tell us whether it is an X Config
problem on the workstation, or and Display manager problem on the
server.
