So, if you're using startx, you're not using GDM. :-) I would recommend
turning on GDM, and using the flexiservers feature: In the System Tools
menu, choose "New login" - it will create a new X server with a login
dialogue, and lock the current X server.
It's cool stuff. :-)
(Not sure what the problem is with the startx approach though - perhaps look
at .xsession-errors or something to see the error logs.)
