"could not init font path element /usr/x11r6/lib/x11/fonts/cid/, removing from list!"

Thats a line in the xorg.conf file that points to a directory that doesnt exist, and that shoudnt cause too much of a problem, just looks a little sloppy. does x start up ok?

_XSERVTransSocketOpenCOTSServer: Unable to open socket for inet6

look at /var/log/Xorg.log or /var/log/XFree86.0.log for errors then, unless there are more errors than you origionaly listed

as root, run xorgconfig and see if that doesn't help?
