either you misread or i didn't make myself clear.  the above will not do
what you wrote, but what i wrote, but only if x is already running on
display 0 (standard).  the other option is to use the frame buffer if for
some reason you don't want to run x at all or can't (like an embedded
system).  but that's complicated and i always have x running.
