Not sure what dist of linux you use, but recent versions of Redhat that've
seen will give up after x tries (5 or so) and resort to a text login
screen.
Also, for the original poster... when X is in that state, you can do an
'init 3' from another vc rather than a reboot. This will shutdown X which
will allow you to try to reconfigure and restart (either with startx or
if you're confident, init 5).
Also, I thinkt he XF86Config-4 syntax was phased out. It was temporary
until XFree86 3.x was phased out. You should be able to find your config
in /etc/X11/XF86Config.
