When they finished, I would just switch back to my VT and
continue where I left off. (Now I??™ve extended this configuration by adding additional
video cards, keyboards, mice, and monitors so we can log in simultaneously.)
Starting Multiple X Servers Using XDM (or Early Versions of
KDM)
XDM and older versions of KDM (pre-3.4) use the Xservers file to configure the
number of servers started by the display manager. The location of this file varies; try
/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers or /opt/kde3/share/config/kdm/Xservers.

32 Chapter 2: Starting a Local X Server
This is a fairly standard Xservers file:
# $Xorg: Xserv.ws.cpp,v 1.3 2000/08/17 19:54:17 cpqbld Exp $
#
# Xservers file, workstation prototype
#
# This file should contain an entry to start the server on the
# local display; if you have more than one display (not screen),
# you can add entries to the list (one per line). If you also
# have some X terminals connected that do not support XDMCP,
# you can add them here as well. Each X terminal line should
# look like:
# XTerminalName:0 foreign
#
:0 local /usr/bin/X
Lines that start with # are comments. The active line, at the bottom, specifies that
display 0 is a local X server, and gives the command line to be used to start that X
server.
