Hello
I am hoping someone can help me with this. I am using KDE4, trying to run a Xephyr session that will load KDM and allow me to login another desktop user in a window of my host KDE session. I have Xephyr installed, and I am using the command:
Xephyr -ac -screen 1440x900 -br -reset -terminate -name "Xephyr" 2> /dev/null :2 &
export DISPLAY=:2.0
From there, I can run applications in the window, like Chrome or whatever. But I have not been able to run KDM or KDE.
I tried "dbus-launch /usr/bin/startkde &" but then the system says : $DISPLAY is not set or cannot connect to the X server.
If I try and just "startx" the Xephyr window crashes. Oh I did allow anybody to run an X session too btw. I have yet to find anything online for help. The closest is for gnome which obviously is not the DE I want to use. Any ideas?
