X server: Error in /etc/X11/X0screens (line 626)
Device name invalid or missing after keyword "Screen".
X server: Will try default "/dev/crt"

Re: the Xserver can not be started on display
export DISPLAY=192.168.0.10:0.0
change the ip adderss part to the acutal ip address of the workstation.
vi /etc/config.d/xfs
make sure the first variable is set to 1.
/sbin/init.d/xfs start
