2.1.2 is broken for me, too. in the console log, I am seeing a lot of

<Notice>: /usr/X11/bin/startx: line 168: xauth: command not found

Maybe you need to define a PATH containing /usr/X11/bin inside the 
startx script?

Indeed, if I add a line

export PATH=/usr/X11/bin:$PATH

at the beginning of /usr/X11/bin/startx, the automatic startup works.
