running another X from within X
Is it possible from within X to start another session of X on a diffent
console? I know I can just Ctrl-Alt-F2, login, and then startx. Then I
could toggle between Ctrl-Alt-F7 and Ctrl-Alt-F8. However, I would like
to accomplish the same thing without dropping down to a console. When I
try to do this from an xterm, I get a message about not being authorized
to run the X server. Root, however, can do it. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Brian
