As I wrote you earlier: this error means that xfs is not running properly. 
Because of this, X will not start. Your graphic mode problem is therefore 
related to the problems with xfs. Solve xfs, and your graphic mode problem 
should also be solved.

Well, you could run X without xfs (I do). If I'm not mistaken, you should 
remove/comment out a line involving "unix/:7100" from your configuration 
file. If that doesn't help you might want to ask about your xfs problem on 
the xfree86 mailinglist. As I don't use xfs myself I don't know where to find 
the logs of xfs either, so I cannot help you find out why xfs will not run 
for you.
