FWIW, it's trivial to run more than one X session (my wife and I share
terminals this way). If startx works for you, just log in to a
virtual console and type the command:
$ startx -- :1
or
$ startx -- :<n>
Switch back to the first X session with ctrl-alt-F7, and to the new
one with ctrl-alt-F8. Additional sessions land on F9, F10, etc.
