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.
