it depends if you want the new user to have access to an opengl compositor, hw accel, games etc or not. if you don't - using xephyr in a locked-in keygrab and fullscreen mode will do, if you DO want full access you literally have to have a full new toplevel xserver in a new vt (and hope to hell the drivers don't barf with 2 x's sharing the same gpu). you need a new xserver either way (be it xephyr/xnest or a full xorg) for security reasons. -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ CenturyLink Cloud: The Leader in Enterprise Cloud Services.
