I don't see how it could fall back to old 3.3.6 version. Normally, you
can't have both X servers installed at same time in same location -- they
conflict with each other. If you have both, then you probably have
problems.

If you have both, I'd suggest you move all your X out of the way and
reinstall it.

What does "XFree86 -configure" tell you?
