[opensuse-factory] No-One has prblm? Re: second X session disappears from view
* Patrick Shanahan <paka@xxxxxxxxxxxx> [04-03-12 19:09]:

openSUSE Tumbleweed
12.2ms2 current
x86_64

starting a second X session works but if I leave that *screen* for a tty
or the other X session, I cannot return. The session is still active but
I cannot access it.

as <user> (requires adding setuid to /usr/bin/Xorg)
startx /usr/bin/openbox-kde -- :1

session starts in screen 8
work in session
leave session to tty1-7 (any)

return to tty8 provides an almost blank screen, contains only a non
movable cursor and gpm block cursor. "startx" session is still active,
ps aux | grep openbox

has output, shows session.

Have this problem on three machines, 2 Tumbleweed and one Factory 12.2m2
