I suspect, if you're running Sid, that you've run into a fairly common
issue of /tmp/.ICE-unix file not belonging to root. "chmod -R root.root
/tmp/.ICE-unix" should fix this is this is the problem.
I looked at the files in that folder and the folder itself. They all belong to root.
If KDM is running when you try to "startx", you'll need to specify
"startx -- :1" or something similar, or stop KDM first to do a normal
"startx".
That didn't work: I'm now getting a new message. /etc/X11/X isn't executable.

Yes, probably.
Then I will.
Nice sights, by the bye. ;-)
