Sorry to re-open, but:
I'm sure this was once possible, but when I try it now, this is the output:
Code:
snoopy@snoopy:~$ sudo xinit /usr/bin/gnome-session --:1
Fatal server error:
Server is already active for display 0
If this server is no longer running, remove /tmp/.X0-lock
and start again.
Please consult the The X.Org Foundation support
at http://wiki.x.org
for help.
ddxSigGiveUp: Closing log
snoopy@snoopy:~$
What am I missing? Need to stop X before this? If so, my original session (on Ctrl+Alt+F7) will be gone, right?
Also, where can I find this log so I can trim it?
BTW, when I run this without sudo, I get a permissions error (not authorized).
Thanks in advance
