I think it may help if you clarify the question a little bit.
You are running a script and it needs to ceck for the presence of a
running X server?
Or are you trying to run X and unable to get the display using a
specific driver, and there are trying to troubleshoot via a script?
The methodology shouldn't be any different in actuality, just pipe ps
ax to match X via egrep.
