I actually discovered "by accident" that it will run
two instances of KDE. I have two Matrox Mystique PCI
cards, and I got them both up and running with both
displays. The first thing I noticed was is that I
had two complete separate desktops! I looked in my
home directory, and there was a "Desktop" directory and
a "Desktop1" directory.
I was confused as all hell, so I browsed through
Matrox's Linux support forum, and found that someone
had experienced a similar problem, and fixed it by
enabling the Xinerama option. I stuck that in there,
and wow! It was working the way I expected it to!
I'd say that by turning off Xinerama, you'd get two
KDE desktops, just like I had.
