Did you at some point in the past use "Switch User" to start a new session on tty8? It would be interesting to know what options are used when the second Xorg process is started. Here is what I see: $ pstree -a $(pgrep -P1 kdm) kdm -config /var/run/kdm/kdmrc ├─Xorg -br -nolisten tcp :0 vt7 -auth /var/run/xauth/XXXXXXXXXX └─kdm └─startkde /usr/bin/startkde ├─kwrapper ksmserver └─ssh-agent /usr/bin/dbus-launch --exit-with-session /usr/bin/startkde This should tell you on which VT the second Xorg process is running; you can then switch to that VT and check out what is going on. (I think it should never happen that two Xorg processes are attached to the same VT; lockfiles in /tmp are supposed to prevent that.) -- Regards, | http://users.icfo.es/Florian.Kulzer Florian |
