Thanks Vik for the info on this, I went and downloaded the source for vnc
right away, and will play with it when I have time... It seems like an
interesting piece of software : ) However, I was wondering if anyone knows if
it is possible to this sort of thing without getting software, and just using
the X server/client provided with Redhat... My original question is as follows:
Hi, I would like to be able to attach a second client to the X server
running on my machine so that I can have two desktop environments
running at the same time for two different users(ex. gnome and KDE) so that I
can access one with ctrl+alt+F7, and the other with ctrl+alt+F8.
When I am logged in as one user and I issue startx everything comes up exactly
the way it should. Then if I switch back to another virtual terminal, login as
another user, and issue startx I get the following output to stderr.
#Begin output
Server error:
Server is already active for display
if this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again.
When reporting a problem related to a server crash, please send
the full server output, not just the last messages
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 key
giving up.
xinit: unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error.
#End output
I feel that my machine should be able to handle more than one connection to the
x server (AMD 400/128 meg Ram). I am also interested in finding a way to
connect to an X server across a LAN. Is there a howto related to this sort of
thing????
Thanks
