Hi 

I playing around with this game Eve (a windows thing packaged with cedega) 
which takes over the whole screen when started. I cant find any way to 
minimize the game when running - there seems to be no access my KDE desktop 
whithout exiting the game. 
I can do a second login using KDE "Change user" and start the game from here 
and then I am able switch between the game and my first desktop with 
ctrl+alt+F7 ctrl+alt+F8 .

So I am searching for a easy way to start a single program (the game) on a 
secondary screen whitout the overhead of running another display manager. 

If I run 
# X :1& export DISPLAY=:1;  xterm &
as root - I can get new X with a single terminal. I can start programs from 
here and might even be able to launch the game this way to. But this only as 
root - if I change user I cant start any X applications. Launching 1.5G bytes 
of gamecode as root does not feel right - so is there an easy way to  change 
user before or after starting X - and still be able to launch the game?

Or am I going in the wrong direction. Any suggestions?
