Done that, it didn't change a thing.

Just copied and pasted from onboot.lst

How?

Replace the content inside with default xbase.lst

--- Code: ---Xvesa.tcz
aterm.tcz
flwm_topside.tcz
wbar.tcz

--- End code ---

Xlibs in onboot.lst turned out to be a problem.
After deleting it from there all runs smooth now.
On first reboot the resolution choice has appeared and now I can change it any time i want it from the ControlPanel on both computers.
How Xlibs got in there is a little mysterious for me as I've never messed up with the system settings except installing some apps.

Anyway, thanks for your help guys.

I don't think so.
Xlibs is required to start a X server.
Is it redundant to be listed in onbllt.lst? Yes.
Is it the cause to your misery? No.
The other files are more likely to bring about the trouble.

marky:
Well, Xlibs is not now in onboot.lst and all is fine.
But it is still listed as present after that ...| grep X command along with: Xorg-7.7-lib, Xprogs and Xvesa and a long list of others as well.
Startx from prompt is working, BTW.
