What "doesn't run" mean exactly ?
Have you check X log for potential errors ?
Which distro are you using ?Code:cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep EE

So, "doesn't run" means that after logged in I put startx and press enter it start but nothing appear on my monitor but the HDD still working, what I think is that my video card isn't installed or have some problem with this but my computer a laptop Toshiba M50 with ATI graphics.
