running x11 from >console

When I try to run X11 using xinit with twm specified in my .xinitrc  from
the console everything seems fine until I try to leave X, when I try
to logout the system won't return  me back to the console.  It sits there
with the apples spinning loading logo.  I also get the same exact screen
if I specify a different window manager in .xinitrc, although X never
actually boots up.  If I use xinit with no .xinitrc file it boots up fine,
I then can specify the window manager from the xterm(specifically uwm) and
it works fine.  Has anyone seen these two problems before?  I think they
may be related since my computer freezes on the same exact screen type.

roger
