Thank you for trying to help, barti.
  1. This may not solve the problem -- abtekk is a KDE user, you are referring to a Gnome issue. And, we don't know enough from the information posted here to know if the problem is KDE related. We don't know, for example, if "startx" had been run with the system default xinitrc or not.
  2. Best practice is to always use /etc/rc.conf.local rather than editing /etc/rc.conf -- rc.conf(5) says:
Code:
     It is advisable to leave rc.conf untouched, and instead create and edit a
     new rc.conf.local file.  Variables set in this file will override
     variables previously set in rc.conf.
Please be aware that the OpenBSD install script will create the /etc/rc.conf.local file if the admin answers any questions that require rc.conf changes. Later changes made to /etc/rc.conf variables that also happen to be in /etc/rc.conf.local will not take affect.
