Hi Mark, I believe that he meant that he could not start X even for the first time after installing Redhat 9.0. Where as he was running linux 7.0 without any problem in X :-).
I agree that if he did not mean this, what I gave is a bad advice. Also please note the lines "Before reporting problems, check http://www.XFree86.Org/ to make sure that you have the latest version." In the error message.

He seems to be missing kernel support for virtual terminals, which is something that any version of XFree86 would require.
