Well I updated and got a new kernel-2.6.31-2.fc12.i686, rebooted new kernel
w/o xorg.conf and got no X , below attachment /var/log/Xorg.0.log.

I tryed also to reboot old kernel-2.6.31-0.204 and got a error message 
just before starting X ,  "Cannot open Theme file 
/usr/share/Kde4/apps/kdm/themes/Constantine".
