No devices detected.

Re: Xorg Problem

Can you start X at all? (Is this an XFCE problem or an X problem?)

What video card are you using? Do you have the drivers installed?

Please post your complete Xorg log.

EDIT: Wait, you mean you're trying to start it JUST by using "xinit" and not "startx"? May I ask why?

Re: Xorg Problem

Actually, I use startx first, but it occurs errors, unable to connect to X server.  And then, I use 

 xinit /usr/bin/startxfce4 

and I found the error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log .
