Starting more than one X-session. If you want to start more than one X-session Login to any character mode virtual terminal (ex : vt1) > startx (as usual) It starts G-nome (i suppose) by default in vt7. If you want to start another X-session with another window manager in vt8. Login as same or another user into vt2. Create a file with the name .xinitrc in your home directory using your favourite editor and put an entry as kde (or any other wm name). > startx -- :1 vt8 It starts kde ! in another terminal (vt8). Like that you can enter into all 6 virtual terminals and start X-sessions with different window managers. To change from one X-session to another press Ctrl+Alt and related function key.
