From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux 2.4.2-2 i686; en-US; 0.7) Gecko/20010316 Description of problem: We install RHL7.1 into i810 chip machine. When we do 'startx', it's OK. When we do 'startx -- :1', it's dead. On RHL7 or before, it can run :0 and :1 display simultaneously with Ctrl+Alt+F7 and Ctrl+Alt+F8. This should be a bug. How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.startx and Ctrl+Alt+F1 2.startx -- :1 3.Ctrl+Alt+F8 And you'll find X is running for :0 and not for :1 Additional info:
try Xconfigurator --preferxf4 --nodri Does that fix the problem?
I can start two X servers no problem on 4 machines here. I understand that the i81x boards are not capable of doing so however.
