If you started it you can kill -HUP the Xserver even if you aren't root. (Not actually killing it, just asking it to die, but it obeys). -- Dr. Andrew C.

Re: [XFree86] xlib: howto detect x killed
No the problem is that when my program try to draw something in the window of a stopped/killed xserver, it crashs. It is impossible to test if the xserver is alive before any drawing primitive. I just would like to get an event that the communication with the xserver is broken instead of a big crash while I send a request to the xserver.
