Okay, that's the same problem I had. It seemed to compile okay, I double-checked that I had the right kernel source and all those types of gotchas that have been discussed previously on this list. It even seemed to start okay, based on the X log - no errors, and the only warnings were about unsupported video modes. I even tried "starx -- -log-verbose 5", and still didn't see anything indicating a problem. But I never got past the splash screen either. I thought I had done something wrong, but if you're getting the same problem, I'll revert to 6111 and apply your patch.
