You can probably correct the situation if you boot up
to a command prompt (linux single) and run XF86Setup.
When I upgraded from the 6.0 xfree to the latest
version, it totalled my ability to run gui. I
had to boot up to the command prompt and run XF86Setup.
This corrected the situation quite nicely.

*** This is a problem with your XFree86 config file in /etc/X11/. It
means
that you should check and double-check the part concerning the
configuration of your screen. Most of the time it happens when you
change
the name of your screen in one section and forget to change it in all
the
others where it's referred too. Normally the upgrade should've saved
your
old XFree86 config file, so you might want to try and put it back
instead
of the new file youre upgrade has installed. If your XFree86 file
did'n't
get overwritten, have a close look at the screen configuration section
of
XFree8
Cheers!
