This does not sound like an Xorg problem. It may be a display
manager problem, or a desktop problem, depending on exactly what is
going on. When you boot, do you get a loging screen, and then get
the xterm when you log in, or do you go directly to the xterm? You
may also want to look at /var/lob/Xorg.0.log and /var/log/messages
to see what errors are being reported.
