It seems like startx(1) (and X in general) is the same for each operating
system I have used it on. But then again, the term "Linux" is vague --
maybe your specific Linux distribution had its own special "startx".

I know another message answered your question. Since your question was
about startx, you can find some documentation about it by typing:

 man startx

This manual page explains how to start clients (like a window manager) and
shares an example .xinitrc file.
