What I want, is several xdm logins on the one box. I find that I can not
run more than one copy of xdm at a time, unless I comment out a line in a
config file, and then it does not run correctly.

I can, however, type X :n   - where n is 1 or 2 or something like that. It
comes up with the background, and from what I can tell, it is running, but
it does no more than that. In other words, I can get the normal xdm login,
and then two or three others with just blank screens which only allow me
to change screen mode, and exit with ctrl+alt+backspc.

Can anyone tell me how to get a window manage running on one of these?
