Your X server looks like its configured wrong and isn't starting up. 
So, your system remains at one of the text logins.  You need to 
determine what's wrong with your X server.  At this point, its probably 
best to play with the "startx" command while you are logged in as 
yourself (not root) so you can view the errors on your console when it 
fails.  I suspect that the actual failure happens much earlier in your 
Xorg.0.log file.
