Why it is not working for Halvliter, is the fact that he is ignoring (God knows why) that the guide is for minimal version. Maybe he was thinking that this statement of the begining of the guide is a joke.
Well that is exactly what I did and I got everything working.
I also put startx in a loop in a bash script so that if it crashed, it would relaunch. My .bash_login file:
if [ -z "$DISPLAY" ] && [ $(tty) == /dev/tty2 ]; then
/home/username/launchx
fi
and launchx with a+x set for it:
#!/bin/bash
while [ 1 ]
do
startx -- -br
sleep 2
done
edit: I see you fixed the wiki entry to use .bash_login, but you also need to put to rename /home/username/.xsession to /home/username/.Xsession. The capital X is important when startx is ran.
