Here is a very simple solution of your problem:
Make your own ~/.startxrc file.
The orig. sys.startxrc contained the line :
exec scosession 2>/dev/null
Your .startxrc file can be:
xhost + &
scosession -xrm "*windowManager: rcmd anyhost /usr/bin/X11/wm -display $DISPLAY" 2>/dev/null
or if you start your windowmanager local:
scosession -xrm "*windowManager: /usr/bin/X11/wm" 2>/dev/null

Both solutions works fine.

Best regards and I hope, it helps.
