Yes. Note that I added the 640x480 at 270 part. I did this because by default it
was showing the screen being in landscape mode, when it "should" be in portrait
mode. I also have a second monitor (xinerama) and am displaying it full screen
on there with a tilted LCD. :)
I also removed an init.d file and put it in root's homedir--it was for screen
calibration at bootup.

Ya, no startx. One way: you can just run `init 3` then `init 5`.
If you want to edit the files outside of qemu, you can do:
losetup /dev/loop0 qemuarm-image.ext2
mount /dev/loop0 /mnt
vi /mnt/etc/X11/Xserver
umount /mnt
losetup -d /dev/loop0
