Ok if your startup is small. Mine is not. But if X is not available, my emacs
is aware.

In the .emacs:
;; X conditional stuff
(if (equal window-system 'x)
    (progn
      ;;; LOTS o stuff
      (server-start)
      )
    (progn
      ;; Stuff when you're NOT in X
      ; like...
      (define-key global-map "\M-\C-\\" 'suspend-emacs)))
