Looks like you answered this one yourself. The SETI screen saver 
assumes that CoreGraphics (Aqua) is running and sprays error messages 
when it is not.

My guess is a path problem. The best thing to diagnose is to redirect 
the output of startx to a file and then look at the file to see what 
failed. Something like "startx >& ~/x.log" is normally very 
illuminating.
