Continuing from my last post:

vim ~/.xinitrc
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session startkde

Drop to tty1

Log in as _current_ user

~$ startx -- :1

Automagically switched to vt8 with new session (full KDE)

Switch to vt7 (old KDE session still running)

Can no longer use tty1 to send commands to vt8
(even when executing ~$ startx -- :1 &)

Switch to tty2

Log in as _current_ user

~$ kate -display :1

Kate launches on vt8
