It is clearly written in my message, in fact in imported it from the

to you?
"DESCRIPTION
Determines if X is installed, Xserver is running on

In fact:
checkX :0 returns a false when, but the X11 server on :0 will
accept client
requests.
I guess I'm not clear why you're not using the syntax Chuck recommends in
his message (see the link to it that I included above). He stated you need
to use the '--display' flag. Here's a quote from Chuck in that message:
To be fair, checkX *should* use the $DISPLAY variable if --display/-d is
not specified on the command line. This appears, from reading the email
thread, to be a real issue.
However, I won't be able to investigate further for at least a
week...and will have only intermittent internet access until then.
