/etc/rc.local is *NOT* started in the X session so it can not set X
parameters
cron also doesn't start the jobs in the X session


~/.xinitrc is only started when running startx
~/.xsession is unfortunately not run by most login managers

What you need is ~/.xprofile which is *sourced* by most login managers
before running your *DE session.
That's also a place to export some variables that are inherited in all
your *DE applications.
