FC5: X won't start

I have updated my FC4 to FC5.

At the first reboot, it started as it should, but was a bit slow in 
graphics. I solved some problems with yum using FC4 repos, and the 
entire machine is now updated (Except for an old known problem on 
gstreamer).

The problem is, that the X server won't start. I have tried the following:

1. boot to runlevel 3, and run "system-config-display
    "couldn't start X server on Card 0"
2. boot to runlevel 3, and run "startx"
    "couldn't start X server on Card 0"
3. removed xorg-x11-server-Xorg and all related packages,and reinstalled 
it all
    Still same result as 1 & 2.

Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong - I am desperate?


Mikael
