You can do this with "gdmflexiserver" which is missing from the Fedora menus. It starts a new X server on the next available VT, locks your current user session, and presents a login screen. Unfortunately, Fedora permissions cause the console devices to be owned by the first user who logs in. I do hope that is eventually fixed. (It's also an issue with text login, of course.) -- David Norris http://www.webaugur.com/dave/ ICQ - 412039
