GNOME Bugzilla – Bug 163327
Allow multiple simultaneous X servers
Last modified: 2005-06-11 09:37:21 UTC
gdm-2.6.0.5-6 In the graphical gdmconfig, it would be handy to be able to turn on more than one X server, to allow multiple simultaneous graphical logins. This allows users who are only familiar with the graphical interface to use the machine without logging out another graphical user who has wandered off. (A relatively common situation at home or in small offices.) This may help improve security, accountability, and privacy by reducing the use of shared logins and making it more convenient to have the screen-locking feature of xscreensaver enabled. You can currently accomplish this by editing /etc/X11/gdm.conf by hand.
