No good. name@nimrodel:~> startxfce4 -- :2 /usr/bin/startxfce4: Starting X server Unrecognized option: -- use: X [:<display>] [option] -a # mouse acceleration (pixels) -ac disable access control restrictions ... ... As I'm starting a secondary session (to go into virtual terminal #8) I need ":2", but it is ignored: p2phelper@nimrodel:~> startxfce4 :2 /usr/bin/startxfce4: Starting X server Fatal server error: Server is already active for display 0 If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock and start again. Invalid MIT-MAGIC-COOKIE-1 keygiving up. xinit: Resource temporarily unavailable (errno 11): unable to connect to X server xinit: No such process (errno 3): Server error. It tries to use "display 0", and that is no-no. It is in use, of course, that's why I request :2 If I try "startxfce4 --help | less", the pipe to "less" is ignored, and it says: Fatal server error: Unrecognized option: --help Seems buggy as hell to me :-( - -- Cheers, Carlos E.
