[SOLVED] lxde (new install) hangs at startup

Fresh install of Arch.  X configured and working fine (tested using WindowMaker) - nvidia card + hal + evdev.

Installed LXDE.  startx  Panel and desktop appear, but no mouse or keyboard (I can Ctrl-Alt-F1 to kill X).  No errors in Xorg0.log.  Also tried svn build of lxsession-lite and lxpanel from AUR, same behavior.

I don't think it's an X issue b/c WindowMaker works flawlessly.

Here's my whole xorg.conf just in case (not I get same behavior if I startx with no xorg.conf present):

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier     "Layout0"
    Screen      0  "Screen0"
EndSection

Section "Files"
EndSection

Section "Module"
    Load           "dbe"
    Load           "extmod"
    Load           "glx"
EndSection

Section "Monitor"
    Identifier     "Monitor0"
    VendorName     "ViewSonic"
    DisplaySize     444    277
    HorizSync       30.0 - 82.0
    VertRefresh     50.0 - 75.0
    Option         "DPMS"
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier     "Device0"
    Driver         "nvidia"
    VendorName     "NVIDIA Corporation"
EndSection

Section "Screen"
    Identifier     "Screen0"
    Device         "Device0"
    Monitor        "Monitor0"
    DefaultDepth   24
    Option         "AddARGBGLXVisuals" "True"
    Option         "RenderAccel" "true"
    Option         "NoLogo" "true"
    Option         "AGPFastWrite" "true"
    Option         "MetaModes" "1680x1050_60 +0+0"
    SubSection     "Display"
        Depth       24
        Modes      "1680x1050" "1600x1200" "1280x1024" "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
    EndSubSection
EndSection

Section "Extensions"
    Option         "Composite" "Enable"
EndSection

I've tried this with both gamin and fam.

Do you installs xf86-input-keyboard and xf86-input-mouse?

Yes, and X works fine (tested using WindowMaker).

Only guessing: Did you install openbox?


To know or not to know ...
... the questions remain forever.

Ack, it wasn't installed!  So obvious, how did I miss it?  I blindly assumed it was installed as part of the lxde group, and never thought to check.

Thanks!
