I'm not a X Window expert by any means, but since I noticed that nobody
replied and you seem to need some help _soon_ I decided to perform some
searches on the Net to dig some information.  Here is what I found:

http://www.redhat.com/mailing-lists/redhat-devel-list/1999-9/msg00010.html
http://www.redhat.com/support/wpapers/newpam/tinkering.html

Sorry if this doesn't really answer your question.  You may also want to
try one of these commands instead plain startx:

startx -display:0
startx -display:1


Just trying to help...   :-)
