After an upgrade from xorg 6.9 to 7.0, startx and other scripts dont work anymore, because xorg isnt started by using X but by using Xorg. IMHO for compatibility and especialy during the transition X should be a wrapper around Xorg. Interestingly X itself doesn't print any error why it couldnt start x, it just exits. There is not even a warning. IMHO this should be fixed to, to avoid problems during and after upgrade
Please check if your /etc/X11/X symlink points to /bin/true - for me this had happened on update 6.9->7.0 - this symlink needs to point to /usr/bin/Xorg for everything to work.
