Display multiple virtual consoles on multiple displays



Greetings,

I'm working on a project that requires me to debug a running screen locker.

Currently, my workflow involves switching between the screen locker and virtual 
console #1 (/dev/tty1) using Ctrl-Alt-F1 and Ctrl-Alt-F7.  This way, I can 
interact with the screen locker until I hit a break point.  I then return to 
the first virtual terminal and step through the code.

This has been very helpful so far, but it's quite slow!

I have multiple displays, so it seems natural that I'd want to use one display 
for the screen locker on F7, and one display for vim and gdb on F1.

Is this possible?  Is it easy or difficult to achieve?

Thanks,
Jason Franklin
