I am still experiencing this as well. I have tried running
startx -- :1
In the first tty ( ctrl+alt+f1 ) as well as running it from a gnome-
terminal and seeing what happens. Both have the same output:

When I ran it from a gnome terminal (startx -- :1) I had to run sudo for it to
run. Either way, the output is the same. That output is from the terminal and
nothing is written to .xsession-errors. I have also attached the XOrg log file.
