Finally, I reinstalled the whole thing from scratch.

This time I picked the 'custom' install option, which means I got to
pick whatever packages I want and I did pick the X-windows package.

It's a success. All X-windows objects now can be found under the
/usr/X11R6/bin directory.

This tells me the 'server' option would skip loading the x-windows.
For performance reason? I hope this isn't the case for the newer
version of Linux.

Thanks everyone!
