Mulitple X sessions on RH 6.1

[Ben Beeson]

Aloha all,

    I have a desire to run multiple X sessions on one of my Linux
boxes.  I remember seeing somewhere a tip on how to accomplish this
trick, but I can't find it now.  If anyone knows how to do this, I would
appreciate some advice.   What I'd like to do is login on VT7 from XDM,
start a separate session on say VT8 for another user, and also send the
contents of the console to VT12 so they are always available.

    I seem to remember that one of the requirements to do this was to
login from X, as opposed to logging in from a console and then starting
X later via startx.  My box now boots to init 5 which should take care
of part of the request, but I note now that changing VT as I used to do
when I booted init 3 doesn't seem to work anymore.   Why is this so????

Thanks in advance,

Ben
