As far as I know, the place for the X server is always /usr/X11R6/bin/X if
you have Debian 1.2 or newer (I don't know the older versions).

Yes, but it is important to check what's in /etc/X11/Xserver. This file
specifies which X server you want to run. It should look something like
this:
----cut-here----
/usr/bin/X11/XF86_S3
Console
The first line in this file is the full pathname of the default X server.
The second line shows who is allowed to run the X server:
RootOnly
Console (anyone whose controlling tty is on the console)
Anybody
----cut-here----
