Also this is a fresh install and almost all files are default. /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc is auto-generated at install with some xterms and an xclock, and /etc/X11/xorg.conf was non-existent (later generated with nvidia-xconfig to try with nvidia-xrun). Another observation is even when x fails to initialize or force closed by pkill, same thing happens. >
