Sure. This is my alias for startx:

My wife and daughter use:
alias startx='startx -- :1 vt08'
and
alias startx='startx -- :2 vt09'
The sessions usually get started in that order, but it makes no
difference if they are started in other orders. My session is always on
VT-07, my wife gets VT-08 and my daughter gets VT-09. That way, I have
an fvwm2 button bar at the bottom of the screen for each of us and I can
have a button to go to either of the other sessions that always gets you
to the correct session.
so, you don't automagically start the X server on bootup, or, maybe I'm still
not clear on the process... these alias lines goes in .bashrc?
Each user's .bashrc get's a different startx alias.
so If I put that in our .bashrc files, rebooted, X comes up, and logged her
in, she would be on vt08?
In this configuration, X does *not* start on boot. The wife and
daughter must log in at the Scary Black Screen Of Doom.
