I need to start a second X server up to run an app that will only run in 8 bit pseudo colour. Currently I start it up with: shell> Xwrapper-4 :1 -depth 8 -query `hostname` It all works fine. However, I would prefer for my display manger to deal with it. To do this I have: :0 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X :1 local /usr/X11R6/bin/X -depth 8 in my /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/wdm/Xservers file. The result is that X core dumps. My question: Is there a way to get the display manager (wdm) to start 2 X servers upon start up ?
