Re: fast way to check local X is running

[Andriy Rysin]

A bit ugly but the case is even not that :) - I have to check for screen 
0.1 (tv output in my case) and ps -ax will not give me that information.

I've got a server program trying to connect to local X server on
command. If X runs everything is fine but if not timeout for
XOpenDisplay is pretty long. I tried to run 'xlsfonts -display
localhost:0.1' when X server is down and got about 6 sec delay. It's
probably reasonable for remote X server because of network delays but
for localhost there is probably a faster way. Delay is crucial in my
case - I need to know if X is down in less than 2 sec, is there any mean
to know really quick if local server is down?
Thanks in advance,
