I'm using dwm in X.Org using no display manager (autostart X at login [1]) in 
Artix Linux and everything works correctly. Setting environment variables 
correctly greatly depends on your startup "stack", ie. if you are using display 
manager such as lightdm, sddm... or just logging in through getty (like myself) 
and autostarting X at login, and also on your login shell. You should study the 
documentation of every piece of that "stack" thoroughly to determine how 
exactly to set up your system.

Like I mentioned in my previous message, input also depends on how you set it 
up in X. I'm configuring XKB[2] through the use of setxkbmap(1) by dwm on 
startup (I use "cool autostart"[3] patch for dwm to do that, though I could 
have also chosen to do it in $HOME/.xinitrc - again, I don't use a DM).
