Here are a couple of suggestions:

1.

When xstart returns:

echo $? # Will give you return value of xinit. Might not be very enlightening if 0 or -1 but it could tell you if the process has been terminated by a signal

2. Before executing xstart, type the following commands:

echo "/tmp/core.%e.%p" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern
ulimit -c unlimited

If your X server core dumps a core dump will be created in your tmp directory.
