Same problem. /usr/X11R6/bin needs to be in your PATH.
Try: $ PATH="$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin" $ startx &> x.output
Also, what is the output of: $ echo $PATH
Paul.
================ Adding it to path worked and then it tried really hard to startx but then it crashed out with an error that made me think it may not be using the correct video driver so I set it back to the Intel Generic but I got the same error message. This one:
[root@localhost ~]# startx

Does that file exist?

Could you post your /etc/X11/xorg.conf?
Are there any interesting-looking error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log?
