If X are started from console by 'startx' (i.e., no entry in wtmp) and
no usual window manager or desktop environment is used, then $XUSER is
set to 'root'.
The only process found by 'pidof' in setting described above is 'X'.
Unfortunately this program is 'suid root' (because of access to hw).
Thus I propose to read 'real user' instead of 'effective user':
