I installed Xorg and awesome, but cant seem to get awesome started. If I try exec awesome I get an error "cannot open display", startX opens the basic X and If I try and start awesome from there I get an "another WM is already running". I dont seem to have a ~/.xinitrc file. so I created one with "exec awesome" in and when i now use startx the screen goes blank.

Just edit your .xinitrc, add "exec awesome" to _the bottom_. Then just startx.
