Hi, gdm appears to be confused when I add an extra server with: 1=Standard ... in /etc/X11/gdm/gdm.conf The second server starts up and presents a login prompt. If I log in on the first server (C-M-F7) and then try to log in on the second (C-M-F8) the session fails with a message saying that :0.0 is already in use. Why would it be trying to use :0.0 - surely it should be using :1.0 ??? I also tried gdmflexiserver but got a similar result. In that case, access to :0.0 was granted and the windows for the third server (C-M-F9) appeared on :0.0!!! Rather unpleasant. I used to do this regularly with xdm but I now need the session choice support of gdm - or kdm, I suppose. I'm using gdm-2.6.0.6 on gentoo linux with xorg-x11-6.8.0-r3 on a 2.6.9 kernel. Of course, this could be a problem with xorg .... Thanks Bob -- Bob Hepple mailto:bhepple freeshell org http://bhepple.freeshell.org Public Key: http://bhepple.freeshell.org/public_keys.txt
