Great, i followed your procedure and i do now get the X server started.
so, now i use the R6 Xserver but R7 fonts, twm, X-apps?

I'd never expected this could work. But it does! Some small hickups,
though, startx fails with some error messages, but when i start X myself

#X && xterm

it works as expected. The keyboard is not changed to "de" layout as
i would expect from the XF86config file. I need some time to fix this.
Hints apreciated!

Greets.
