If you want to start a second session, the syntax is "startx kde -- :1". "wmlist" will print a list of available wm.

No? I think it does on my machine.
However, for some reason I don't know, this syntax fails with 11.2 («bad command line option "xterm"»). Go figure.
I have not tried with kde/gnome, but icewm, xfce4, enlightenment, e16 and lxde work for me in 11.2 (from runlevel 3).
I have discovered that the command works if you give the full path to the wm, but fails if you give only the name - which worked on earlier versions. - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
