How to restart x11/StumpWM from a different tty.

Sometimes my graphic environment locks up. I think this is a StumpWM issue since my keyboard and mouse continue to "work". I can move the mouse around and switch to a different tty using ctrl-alt-f<n>. But nothing works in the tty where I ran `startx`.

What can be done from a different tty to troubleshoot/fix the issue? I've tried `stumpish` from another tty but I get the error `xprop: unable to open display`.

Other possibly relevant info is that my `.xinitrc` launches StumpWM with `dbus-launch --with-exit-session --sh-syntax stumpwm`.

Thanks,
Eric
