xterm: buttons work but cannot type text at the prompt

With the new release of X11, xterm comes up and its buttons work. However, I
cannot type text at the prompt. I am running X11 w/o a window manager. A
number of other applications that require text input also do not work. How
do I get text input to work? 

When I try to bring up a window manager with startx, the manager comes up
and then crashes. What's up?

Thanks,

--Carl
