[K12OSN] x won't start on server

[Jimmy Schwankl <schwankl chatham k12 nc us>]

Hello all,

Over the Thanksgiving holiday here I remotely ran yum on a server at 
one of my schools and had it update pretty much everything.  (k12ltsp 
version 3.1.1 redhat-9)
and now X won't start on the server.

Here is (what I hope) is the relevant info from the XFree86.0.log file. 
 If anyone knows of what I should try in order to resolve the two 
errors at the end of the list, I'd be much appreciative (as would the 
teacher whose lab it is)

Otherwise, I'll probably boot from the 3.11 CD's and reinstall the X11 
portions.  Thanks in advance.

Peace,
Jimmy Schwankl
