Apparently these were related. I have been having trouble with the filesystem filling up. It may have happened during the X window system upgrade. I reinstalled everything with cd /var/cache/apt/archive dpkg -i *4.0.3*deb A file /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 was created, and X windows now starts. - Jim Van Zandt
