IMO it's much better to tell X to run on the same VT (i.e. the first one), start X with "background none" and use the same background. Then you have a flicker free boot and user has the feeling that boot was much faster then it really was. Unrelated question about exquisite: why aren't you using an abstract socket to communicate with exquisite? "2. You need a /tmp directory for the UNIX socket that is used to talk to exquisite. The exquisite-write utility sends messages to exquisite via a UNIX domain socket created in /tmp. This needs to be writable for exquisite to start." This implies that you need to have /tmp mounted or a writable / early on boot sequence. If you use abstract sockets you can start exquisite earlier. With dietsplash I use this and run the run the splash even before handing off to the init process.
