As soon as X was compiled and successfully started, I've emerged XFCE and SLiM display manager. After setting slim to auto start after boot and instead of the standard xdm, I've stumbled upon the following issue: login screen is presented asking for username and password, but as soon as those entered the screen turns blank and desktop loading is stopped.
According to the SLiM wiki it's a dbus issue and it is solved pretty easily. One should just add dbus to the default init level, by writing in terminal as root:
restart afterwards.
