Probably ~/.xserverrc is the right file to put a custom X server and 
command line options? And /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xinit/xserverrc for a 
global one. See manpage of startx.

I'm using ~/.xserverrc, which works fine like this:

[bjorn-G/[email protected] bjorn]$ cat ~/.xserverrc
exec /opt/fdo/bin/Xvesa -mode 0x0118 -dpi 72

Though because of the lack of GLX, hardware acceleration, proper WACOM 
driver and issues with the xcompmgr (like logging out of GNOME acting 
weird), I tend to switch back to XFree86. :(
