Hi there,

Just in case, here's how you start a second display in your X Window=20
box:


[sinner@server sinner]$ startx -- :1

This will tell to X to start the display at the second ("1") display in=20
your system.

This second display will be at "F8"

To change from Display :1 to your text terminals, use Ctrl-Alt-F1=20
To change from Display :1 to your Display:0, use Ctrl-Alt-F7
To change from Display :0 to your Display:1, use Ctrl-Alt-F8.
To change from text terminals to your Display :1 , use Alt-F8=20
To change from text terminals to your Display :0 , use Alt-F7=20


Salut,
Sinner
