multiple X sessions

[E Papantoniou <eenep@sun.leeds.ac.uk>]

Hi,

when I am logged in as a user and I run X windows, I press Ctrl-Alt-F2
and as expected a new terminal comes up. Then I log in as a different user
and I type startx. I get some errors:

Fatal server error
Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock and start again

Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
giving up
xinit: unable to connect to X server
xinit: no such process (errno 3): Server error

does anybody know how to correct this?
