I have the error
**************************************************************************************************** **
_XSERVTransSocketINETCreateListener: ...SocketCreateListener() failed
_XSERVTransMakeAllCOTSServerListeners: server already running

Fatal server error:

Cannot establish any listening sockets - Make sure an X server isn't already running
****************************************************************************************************
the FAQ on the net have instructions to solve the problem

This problem is very similar to the previous one. You will get this message possibly because the lock file was removed somehow or some other program which doesn't create a lock file is already listening on this port. You can check this by doing a netstat -ln. Xservers usually listen at tcp port 6000+<Display Number>, therefore if you have started your Xserver with the command line option :1 it will be listening on port 6001.

the instruction is very unclear to me, and still don't know what to do, tried startx -- :1, doesn;t work
anyone else knows the problem?

***and in my /etc/innittab there were lots of writing, i didn't know what to put or else it would be too long
