    Silly question, maybe...

    Are there other users?

    If you log out, do you see a list of other users?

    Can you log in as a different user?

    Is it that you are starting X directly with startx instead of a login manager
    like kdm or xdm(running as root)?

    If you click the logout and go to a console, your not using kdm or xdm.

    B-)
