Quick test. If you hit Ctrl-Alt-F1, does it go back to the text
screen? If so, then press Ctrl-F7 and see if it pops up with something
that looks like a desktop. I've seen numerous cases with machines that
get their address via dhcp that X appears to hang. It's actually
running, but something network related causes it to delay the display.
This is a shot in the dark though.
