I don't want to sound excessively narky, but RTFEM[1]. Its already
told you where/what you should be looking at.
The new X wrappers use /etc/X11/X as a symlink to the correct X server
binary to run. On a machine using XFree 4.x, you'd symlink it to
/usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86.
You can correct this by running (as root):
cd /etc/X11
ln -s ../../usr/X11R6/bin/XFree86 X
On older versions of XFree, you'll have to work out what the correct
server is, and symlink it instead.
