	I'm not the OP, but I have a similar problem : startx fails, both 
as root and as user. 

	The machine here (the only one with that F9 problem) is my main 
(newest, biggest,fastest) PC; and I get a different error message.

	Nevertheless, I thought I might as well try commenting those 
lines out. But the xorg.conf file there does not contain the word "load"
