Obviously those logging into a<br>> text login session and running startx from there have a login session<br>> already going when they run startx, with console perms already set<br>> for the existing login. That contrasts significantly with the *dm<br>> login case, where X is already running and at least basic input perms<br>> would be necessary in ordered to be even to login graphically at all,<br>> which seems to be your problem.
