It's more likely that your PATH is set incorrectly. "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.
