Simone,
that's a typical behaviour with xorg images generated by Yocto.
In that case you need to explicitly add 'xterm' to the recipes in your image.
Then you will be able to run xinit &, after that can launch/stop your graphical application in the proper way without killing the X server each time.

Cordiali Saluti / Kindest Regards / Mit freundlichen Grüßen
