Except for killing speakup in the GUI console, you don't need to do anything. Be aware that using startx will cause speakup to read a lot of data that can't be easily stopped because you aren't in the console that is talking when the X server starts. When I still used startx, i created an .xinitrc file in my home dir with the options and commands for my session. If you typed the name correct, then you need to realize that Xsession has an upper case X. If you just want to use a GUI login for Gnome, and you're running Debian, just apt-get install gdm Since gdm beeps when it's ready for login, I haven't found booting to a GUI login to be a problem. Hope this helps.
