You are just using the same system, only the root of the filesystem is changed for processes running in the chroot-environment. > Do I have access to $DISPLAY somehow and can I use startx, so I can > test X packages directly? If you use localhost:0.0 you can use the same display (note that :0.0 doesn't work since the X-socket is in a location the chroot-environment cannot access). If you want to do startx you have to use a different display since X is already running.
