That can't be right. We have Xorg working just fine in RedSleeve, which is essentially an armv5tel port of CentOS. I certainly have Xorg with KDE working on my Chromebook running RSEL7.

There is no version of X that works on CentOS. What is there is incomplete from what I can tell. In part I believe that is due to bugs in the upstream drivers if I understand Jim Perrin correctly. I spent days trying to get X and gave up. I tried using a version of Fedora with Mate which worked but was buggy. As much as I didn't want to do it, I ended up using the latest version of Raspbian which comes with Pixel and works great. I had other reasons such as the newest Raspbian makes it easy to switch the PI3 serial port behavior back to what is was for the PI2. Important if you wish to use one of the GPS hats.

At a glance, it looks like Xorg couldn't probe either the fbdev or modesetting drivers. Do you get a grey Xorg screen if you just run "X"? (exit with Ctrl+Alt+Backspace if it starts). You may need to set up a basic xorg.conf with the driver and modelines explicitly listed.
hi Gordan,
I get nothing, startx just exist with the error. Xorg -configure exist with the same error.
I seem stuck
