gdm can do this.
Use gdm as display manager, then you can use gdmflexiserver to create a new session.

Hello, 
 
It would be nice to have a user switch feature which does not force me to shut down 
programs. For example if my mother must check mail, I don't want to log off (and shut 
down 
xmule).  
 
Currently I have to 
 
lock the session 
CTRL+ALT+f2 
startx -- :1 
 
But this does not work fully: I have many resource locking problems, e.g. the sound 
does not 
work, and the tv card doesn't either. 
 
Also, it is not apparent enough. 99% of the users don't know it is possible. 
 
Windows XP does this since years, and I heard SUSE 8.2 does it too. 
cheers!
