If that's a blank screen with a checkered or herringbone pattern, and a
black "X" (which may or may not move when you wiggle your mouse), you're
well on your way.

How about you tell us what you see, and maybe report the output of:

    startx 1> startx.log 2>&1

...which will dump a bunch of text to the file 'startx.log'.
