I just finished installing arch linux with openbox.
When i execute "startx" as user it gives me the following error msg
Fatal Server Error:
Cannot move old log file ("/var/log/Xorg.0.log" to " /var/log/Xorg.0.log.old"
given up.
xinit: connection refused (errno111)
however when i "startx" as the "su" it works fine.
what do i need to do in order to exec startx as reg., user?

I had the exact same error as you (See where I posted this same topic mere minutes after you did, haha). I fixed it by doing a
# chmod u+s /usr/bin/Xorg

This is a pacman 3.0.5 bug and has already been reported here: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/7461

that solves my problem too :-)
in order to keep fools away from removing your "/usr/bin/Xorg" file make sure you do this after changing permissions:
chmod -c 755 /usr/bin/Xorg
