How about
ps -ax | X
to find out if X is running, if it is
xdpyinfo | grep number of screens: 2
or similar (not sure on syntax).
This should be quite quick because it wont wait for any timeouts.

I tried that, the delay is the same as with 'localhost:0.1' ~6 sec. Man

If the hostname is a host

not specified, Xlib uses

Specify ":0.1" (note: no hostname) as the DISPLAY. That will use UNIX

A bit ugly but the case is even not that :) - I have to check for screen
0.1 (tv output in my case) and ps -ax will not give me that information.

And actually running just 'xlsfonts' with X down gives error right away.
The problem is that I have to check for screen 0.1.
Is there any w

XOpenDisplay is pretty long. I tried to run 'xlsfonts -display
