It would probably be because the X maintainer left a typo in /etc/X11/Xsession that means X starts and immediately dies. About lines 45-51 of /etx/X11/Xsession, change: fi fi default) ;; *) program=$(which $1) to: fi fi ;; default) ;; *) program=$(which $1) (notice the extra line with ;; in it). Methinks the X maintainer was releasing packages after having not slept sufficiently the night before (at least, when I have errors like this in fvwm95 packages, that's what the cause is).
