How to launch a second X server

[Guillaume Chazarain]

Hi,

I have a Voodoo Banshee (16 Mo), so if I want to have OpenGL
acceleration, I have to use a depth of 16 bits, but if I want
to see videos, 24 bits are preferred.

The only way I found was to launch a secondary X server on :1
but then the troubles begin.

If I launch this X server using "xinit -- :1" in a terminal from
a gnome environment brought by gdm, the new display shows up in a
black screen where I can move the mouse. But nothing can access this
server, even xinit gets:

AUDIT: Wed Mar 31 21:37:11 2004: 11509 X: client 1 rejected from local host
Xlib: connection to ":1.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
 
 
waiting for X server to begin accepting connections .
Xlib: connection to ":1.0" refused by server
Xlib: No protocol specified
