Do an:
ls /usr/X11R6/bin/XF*
and find the server that you're using, it'll be something like XF86_SVGA or
XF86_Mach64. Then do this:
cd /etc/X11
ln -s /usr/X11R6/bin/<BLAH> X
Replace <BLAH> by the file name that the 'ls' command above gave you.
Try your startx again and all should be fine.
Good luck!
