Bug#203695: /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit: why big delay when already know failed



Package: xbase-clients
Version: 4.2.1-9
Severity: minor
File: /usr/X11R6/bin/xinit

      # xinit
      
      X: warning; process set to priority -11 instead of requested priority -10
      
      Fatal server error:
      Server is already active for display 0
	      If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
	      and start again.
      
      
      When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send
      the full server output, not just the last messages.
      Please report problems to submit@bugs.debian.org.

OK, but why the 10 second delay here? If you already know it failed
then just bail out or at least say on the screen what you are doing
now that we are waiting for and why.
      
      Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
      Xlib: No protocol specified
      
      giving up.
      xinit:  unable to connect to X server
      xinit:  No such process (errno 3):  Server error.
