You can't just startx because it'll look for a graphics card (which it doesn't 
have).

You could run "vncserver" directly (which will start an X server with a 
virtual displayitself).

To use "ssh -X" you don't need to startx first.  Just run "ssh -X" then when 
you're logged in, run "xterm".  If that doesn't work, post the error message.
