I don't see what work is involved with screen. Just start your session
on any terminal like this:

$ screen -S <somename> # this is not necessary, but nice if you do

Then later on any terminal, either within a terminal emulator in X or in
a proper tty, you can do

$ screen -ls

to list your screen sessions and

$ screen -r <session_name>

to reattach to an existing session.

Hope this helps.
