not that I know of how do you tell if there's another X server running. I mean
there is after I do a sysvinit boot (from the grub advanced menu) but on a

Does the PID in the lock file correspond to a running process?

ps -f `cat /tmp/.X0-lock`

Are there any running instances of an X server?

ps -fC Xorg

Kind regards,
