Are you sure ?
The XServer is not very visible, it just shows an icon on the taskbar.
In the far past it was also starting an Xterm and that was a more
visible presence of the XServer

Questions:
What is the final portion of the startxwin log ?

Have you by chanche a .startxwinrc in your home directory ?

Are /etc/defaults/etc/X11/xinit/startxwinrc
and /etc/X11/xinit/startxwinrc identical ?

Any AV that could interfere ?
