You don't want to do this.  In LTSP, X never runs on the server, it
always runs on the workstations (this is a simplification, of course,
but accurate enough for the purposes of this discussion).

If you run xinit, startx, or X via telnet, you are asking the server to
start a GUI on the server's display, not your terminal.

If you edit /opt/ltsp/i386/etc/lts.conf, you can set RUNLEVEL=5 for your
terminals.  This will start them in graphical mode.

There are ways to do what you're describing (make the GUI optional), but
they aren't built into LTSP and they can be tricky to set up.
