Secondly, X7.2 as I tried it wouldn't "startx" if some other login had

I think I ran into this once a while back, I don't know what is the
correct solution.
Perhaps you could put in some kind of "setenv XAUTHORITY .Xlocalauthority"
in a script somewhere.
Actually this one can bite you quite badly. If you are running X, and
then you login from somehwere else, and then go back to the X session,
then suddenly all your X commands like xterm will completely stop working.
It can be really disconcerting if you don't know what caused it, and I can
see a large number of help messages being generated on the various
bulletin boards.
