You need to modify your /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf file to create a second server. Uncomment (or create) the appropriate lines in the [server] section so that it looks like this: [servers] 0=Standard 1=Standard and then execute /usr/sbin/gdm-safe-restart. Once you've logged out of your X session, gdm will restart with the new configuration. This will create a second X server bound to virtual terminal 8. You can now switch back and forth between them with CTRL-ALT-F7 and CTRL-ALT-F8. I use this exact setup on my system at home, and it works quite well. -- "Whenever I feel blue, I start breathing again." - Unknown -- redhat-list mailing list unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=unsubscribe https://listman.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/redhat-list
