It's not that I don't believe you, but stating that startx is not in your system when you have installed XFree is like saying you've installed Windows but you can't run command.com or cmd.exe... Yes, it is that illogical!

Have you done whereis startx? Did it return anything? If you do have X installed properly, you should see something like this:
Code:
me@slackbox:/var/log$ whereis startx
startx: /usr/X11R6/bin/startx /usr/bin/X11/startx /usr/X11/bin/startx /usr/X11/man/man1/startx.1x.gz
Next, you should check if /usr/X11R6/bin is in your $PATH by running echo $PATH... You should see something similar to this:
Code:
me@slackbox:/usr$ echo $PATH
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/games:/opt/kde/bin:/usr/lib/qt-3.1.2/bin:/usr/share/texmf/bin
