i don't use xdm at the moment, just startx. Is it possible to get xdm to put a login prompt on more than one vc? e.g. have xdm login screens on vc 3,4,5,6 so i can login on vc3 but let other people share my machine in X windows without having to log out...just press ctrl-alt-F4 to switch to another X login screen. Anyone done this before? if xdm can't do it, is there another tool that can? Craig
