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.
