I can confirm problems with openbox. It does not start everytime i try
on my computer and i get the same behavior that you described, a short

Openbox is just a window manager. If that's all you have in ~/.xinitrc,
you won't see anything because there are no windows for the WM to decorate.
I know that. Sorry for being to short with the description.
The X-Server dies when openbox starts, and it shouldn't do that, even
without a window manager. But i see this only every tenth attempt to
start openbox, while the original poster seems to have this every time.
And I changed /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc, no ~/.xinitrc
Interestingly, putting openbox at the end of the start script and doing
exec openbox-session >/tmp/openbox.log 2>&1
seems to stop that, but i haven't tried enough to be sure.
