1)  What you get when you start X11 is set up in a configuration file.
Right now the information is being read from /usr/X11R6/etc/xinit/xinitrc
.

You should copy this file to your home directory and rename your copy to
.xinitrc and then modify it as needed.

2)  You are probably running the default window manager (twm).  Twm is
pretty minimal, and doesn't work well in rootless mode.  If you are
running in fullscreen mode, then you can click on the background to get
the menu for twm--basically you can run an xterm but not much else.   If
you control-click on an xterm it will give you a menu.  However, if you
kill the one named login it will close your X11 session, because it is set
up to do so in xinitrc.
