X-SERVER will not display on Solaris 8

Hi,

I just installed Solaris 8 (x86) on a PC and I cannot get the X-Server configured:

Below is a copy of Xerrors:
X_mkdir: No such file or directory
X_mkdir: No such file or directory
There is no XDISPLAY information for display 0.
Check the OWconfig file(s) and try again.

Fatal server error:
The server will now exit because of configuration problems.

Wed Sep 21 14:36:14 2005
error (pid 296): Server for display :0 terminated unexpectedly 1
There is no XDISPLAY information for display 0.
Check the OWconfig file(s) and try again.

Fatal server error:
The server will now exit because of configuration problems.

error (pid 296): Server for display :0 can't be started.

I have not worked with Solaris in many years, so I'm sort of a newbie. Right now I can only use the command line, GUI will not come up. Please help!!!!
Thanks in advance!!!
