My goal is to login to a console and do some non-gui stuff. Then lock the console and walk away, but still allow X to be used. Sometimes I like to tail the mail logs in a console, and the only way to lock them (without killing the tail) is to lock all consoles. The problem then is that it is impossible to switch to vc7 and use X there. -D -- In his heart a man plans his course, but the Lord determines his steps. Proverbs 16:9
