Good evening John,
perhaps the following questions might help you:
1. did you have a look at the file /var/log/startx.log ?
2. are you sure that the old Xfree86 V3.1 supports your video card
?
(e.g. Cirrus Logic CLGD5440 is not supported)
3. X-Window requires a working mouse: look at /var/log/startx.log to
see if your mouse is configured properly.
Good luck and Hear from you tomorrow... :-))
Karl-Heinz
