Have you considered using xvfb and vnc to it, or you absolutely have to
do it on a real display?

For a project I'm working on at the moment, I need to be able to log

to allow for creating a single full screen window for display.
I seem to recall that just running X as a user used to do it, up to
the no cursor part, leaving an empty (hetched) screen and running the
content of .xsession or something like that.
Things on modern systems seems to have changed enough with all the
xsession / gdm / gnome etc. that it doesn't seem to happen properly.
Any idea how I can achieve that on a modern system (red hat enterprise
desktop 6 in this case).
thanks
