Hi there. I'm trying to get xdm to display login prompts on two seperate consoles, using DIFFERENT X servers, each one using a DIFFERENT mouse to get around the apparent problem of xdm not allowing the same mouse to be shared. I've played around with /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/xdm/Xservers, to look something like :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/XF86_S3 :1 local /usr/X11R6/bin/Xaccel :1 but this causes all sorts of horrible problems, making the machine horribly unstable. I hope someone out there can help! I've looked in the -questions archive, and can't find anything. I've tried the xdm man page, and according to that, the above should work - but it doesn't :-( TIA, --- Khetan Gajjar [ http://www.iafrica.com/~khetan] I'm a FreeBSD User!
