Which Debian release?
What DE?
Any error log info?
NOTE: slim is not a DM so *if* you are using xdm/gdm/kdm (but not
Openbox) try:-
$ DM=$(ls /etc/init.d/ | grep dm);su -c "service $DM start" (or "sudo
service $DM start" if you have sudo installed) instead of startx
Sorry don't have access till this evening to the Wheezy systemd OpenBox
laptop - but I "think" I just installed systemd and ran "systemctl
enable slim.service" and everything just worked next boot. I may have
modified ~/.xinitrc to allow for DM choices but I'll have to check.
Kind regards
