You must first determine if you are working on a console or a graphics monitor
You can't run X on most consoles, they are just ASCII terminal I/O devices.
So, before you start talking GUI desktop, you have to talk X server enviroment and make sure you have X terminals and services running appropriately.
If you just have an ASCII console in front of you and no X servers on the net, you can't run xinit very effectively
