Stupid me! Apparently, I did not have anything in /root/.xinitrc. <br>
Adding <br>
exec /usr/bin/startlxde <br>
makes the X server start just fine.<br>
<br>
Thanks for the help, <br>

Apparently, if I start xdm instead of running startx, it works OK. I
will now try to find out why startx fails.<br>
Thanks for your help, <br>

This log looks like X starts up fine, and then the session ends. Are
you sure it's not your session crashing or terminating prematurely,
rather than an X problem?
Cheers,
Julien
