The two files present seem related to the input devices (10-evdev.conf says 
it's a catchall loader for udev-based systems, and 20-synaptics controls the 
trackpoint/touchpad).

Not yet, as I have not identified such locations.

There might be /etc/X11/xinit with xinitrc and xerverrc. However people seem 
to advocate ~/.xinitrc which, I guess, can only be read *after* login.

For the time being my scripts are in /usr/local/share but started by *.desktop 
files in ~/.config/autostart

Mmh... In last resort. I don't élike playing with Sync and Refresh, only to 
get a bigger login. Seting auto-login wwould also be a solution on that 
machine.

Not starting plymouth did not let start X. Plymouth crashed because X was not 
running.

Thank you, I'll try that.
