startx usually needs configuring the first time it's started up. startx
has some parameters to do this and depending on hardware and software
involved this may or may not work. Configuring startx is probably going to
be the most difficult part for using gnome and gtk and kde for people
without sight. redhat used to have a utility called SuperProbe which got
discontinued and while that existed it made life much easier. It detected
all necessary information about video and you could get that written out
to a file. Not just the video card, the monitor attached as well too.
If you can get sighted assistance to examine the monitor write down the
vertical sync rate; the horizontal sync rate, the brand of video monitor,
and the model of video monitor. All of that information will be needed to
configure the monitor completely.
