I installed the server version 7.10. Installed X server. Installed xinit. When I start X using startx I get the error message no valid fonthpath.* I tried sudo apt-get install fontconfig but still cannot start X using startx?? Any solutions?

[Ubuntu-desktop, Kubuntu-desktop, Xubuntu-desktop...] I don't believe that Mike would have chosen the server version if he want to have all the desktop stuff. Mike, I had success after installing the meta package x-window-system-core. It depends on all packages you need for running startx.

I have set up an ubuntu minimal installation with a minimal X installation for a Video Disk Recorder. The only X applications are xineliboutput-sxfe and mms that can be found here: http://mymediasystem.org/. I tell this only to give you an example for a X installation without desktop.
