StartX not running

[Ben Brown]

I had this problem when I attempted to use ATi's drivers with my Radeon
9000. I'm not all that impressed with their drivers, but that's another
story.

I had to edit /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, search for the line

BusID PCI:1:0:1

and change it to

BusID PCI:1:0:0

and then restart X.

Hopefully the same will work for you.
