Hey all, I'm wondering if it would help me to have 2 potentially simultaneous logins on my computer, one for private use and one for work (I'm working from home). That would give me 2 home directories, 2 icedove profiles etc etc.
To that end, does anyone know if it's possible to have 2 instances of gdm (or whatever display manager) start at boot, so I can log in to them independently? Actually, I can't think of any reason it wouldn't be possible, so does anyone have any tips on how? My current X session is on vt9 (not sure why - they used to be on 7?), so presumably the next one would be on vt10. I've had a play with xdm, since I found suggestions that I could just add a line to /etc/X11/xdm/Xservers, but that doesn't seem to work - I get one Xserver, and random (well, unpredictable) VT switches. Perhaps it worked with XFree86 but no longer works with Xorg? Cheers, Richard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
