please note CAPS == SHOUTING
normally X points to some X-server ( i.e. X is a symlink ) . My X is symlink to SVGA server:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 9 Aug 23 08:33 X -> XF86_SVGA
Try to find out yours by:
#ls -l `which X`
now your task is setting appropriate permissions for the binary that the X points to.
