Doesn't starting X

I was updating my ArchLinux by
$pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/lalaalal.pkg.tar.gz

and I have update KDE xdm and some Xorg
After update some of these package my Linux doesn't want to start X-server
He only start wmaker, but there is no any wmaker inside /etc/.Xsession and ~/.Xsession and /.Xauthority

When I boot in INIT 3 from grub,Linux refresh screen every 45 seconds trying to start X...
I have Radeon Video card

Which log do you want to see for helping me? (i can use SSH to show you for it)

Re: Doesn't starting X

what does ~/.xinitrc say? I think the default one tries to start wmaker.

Re: Doesn't starting X

The last part of /var/log/Xorg.0.log should be interesting. Also if you start X manually from a console the output after a crash should help.
