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.

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.
