Hi all,

Quick question regarding X.

I need to start a second X server up to run an app that will only run in 8 bit pseudo colour.
Currently I start it up with:

shell> Xwrapper-4 :1 -depth 8 -query `hostname`

It all works fine.

However, I would prefer for my display manger to deal with it.

To do this I have:

:0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X
:1 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -depth 8


in my /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/wdm/Xservers file.

The result is that X core dumps.

My question:

Is there a way to get the display manager (wdm) to start 2 X servers upon start up ?

Thanks

 - aW
