Hi I've been trying to type startx on LXTerminal and PuTTY and I've been getting a error message

What are you trying to make occur when you do this? Putty doesn't support ssh -X , does it? So you aren't trying to make the pi display the X desktop on your local machine, right? You want to start X on the pi and display it on the pi's display, right? Once you get this going, how are you going to interact with it? If you don't have a keyboard and mouse on the pi, you'll just have X there with no way to do anything with it. Now there might be a way around that, but it makes sense to try to understand what you want to make happen.

In any case, running X remotely like that is blocked by default in Ubuntu and I suspect also in other Debian derivatives. This is a security policy that can be changed. There may be be other issues preventing this from working too, I don't know at the moment.

The ssh login is limited to command line control. If you want a GUI control you need to be running a VNC session (VNC server on the Pi and VNC client on the remote machine).

If you run a X-server program on the remote machine (e.g. Xming on Windows) you can run a command in the ssh terminal that produces a GUI window (but NOT startx) that will show up on that remote machine. You need the 'forwarding' option set in Putty

Please clarify what you are trying to do
