exactly what symptoms are you seeing?
is the system attempting to boot into runlevel 5 or are you trying 
manually with startx.

try this:
in a terminal, as root:
# system-config-display --reconfig --noui
to regenerate a basic /etc/X11/xorg.conf file
then test with startx and tell us what errors you see. if any.
