 Ok, some more info.

 I got it partially working now by running

 Xwrapper -dev /dev/grf3 -mode 4

 as non-root user. I get a blank X screen with no window manager or anything
 else running, just blank. C-Alt-BS gets me out.

 This leads me to the assumption that the Xserver doesn't read any config
 files, system-wide or user specific. And, maybe, the communication between
 startx/xinit/Xwrapper/X isn't working as it should.

 xdm works, sort of. If I log in as root and start xdm, I can log in as
 a user. But I only get the standard twm setup, ~/.xinitrc is totally
 ignored. The only way to run wmaker is to manually kill twm and start
 wmaker ...
