Xorg works from liveCD, but not (anymore) in hd-install (2)

[AngelOfHope]

Hi, I thinks my subject kinda says it all. So, xorg works when I boot from cd, but doesn't work anymore when i boot from hd. It has worked, that's why I find it strange the xorgwizard doesn't work anymore.... (after one of many crashes, probably due to hardware probs...)
A little bit more details:
AMDXP2000+
512Mb RAM
90Gig NTFS windows XP partition (hda1)
20Gig Linux partition (hda2) <-- this is where the type 2 hd install of puppy is on

Graphics card:
Nvidea Geforce4 MX460 vtp (MSI)
Monitor:
I think a standard 17inch CRT monitor

If you need to know more... just let me know!

you could copy /etc/X11/xorg.conf from the working CD-system to the harddisk.

If X does not start, look if there is
/usr/X11R6/bin/X
It should be a symlink pointing to Xorg

To test that, type in a console:
ls -l /usr/X11R6/bin/X
This should show:
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 4 Jun 15 05:13 /usr/X11R6/bin/X -> Xorg

If it is not, run this command:
rm -f /usr/X11R6/bin/X
cd /usr/X11R6/bin/
ln -s Xorg X

If that still does not help, try to copy from the working CD-system:
/root/.xinitrc
/usr/X11R6/bin/xwin

---------------
For troubleshooting:
type
mp /tmp/xerrs.txt
mp /var/log/Xorg.0.log

Especially the last file is difficult to understand, so you might attach it, so that we can try to find an error in it.

Thanks, it works now, I think it was the .xinitrc thing.. dunno. First time it didn't work, booted from cd again, and copied over every X folder and then I see I think I forgot .xinitrc.
After rebooting the xorgwizard worked and now I'm using xorg... next trying to install driver for my G4MX460 card
