(Disclaimer: I have no idea how X works on VAXen, so take this with a
grain of salt. Maybe someone from DEC can comment?) What you are
describing sounds like a bug in xdyinfo. It should've complained that
it couldn't open display, when you set your DISPLAY to the VT1000 --
obviously there's no X server running there!
