"startx" is part of the "xorg-x11" package, which is almost certainly already installed on your system, and the command should be found at /usr/X11R6/bin/startx What's the output of "echo $PATH" on your system? The directory /usr/X11R6/bin should be included. Ok, found startx in /usr/X11R6/bin/startx it is linked to /usr/bin/X11 (the dir is). When I run it I get: ./startx: line 132: xauth: command not found ./startx: line 133: xauth: command not found ./startx: line 132: xauth: command not found ./startx: line 133: xauth: command not found ./startx: line 141: xinit: command not found ./startx: line 144: xauth: command not found Couldnt get a file descriptor referring to the console
