OKAY! I finally got it to work. First thing was:
1. I changed my "localhost" IP address under /etc/hosts. That screwed things up, and when I changed it back, it started makeing less errors.
2. I also screwed up some X startup files. Who know's what I did, but I screwed them up, so I copied the defaults to a floppy when I booted from floppy (I'm installed to hd) and then recopied them. Less errors once more.
3. Finally, I realized that xinit had been deleted. (I dunno how) so I recopied that...and it worked! So now I have icewm running beautifully.
 
One question though, in icewm,. is there a way to load a certain theme everytime you start it? I have to do it manually right now.
 
Thanks!
