On my F10 machine, my main X session is on Ctrl-Alt-F1, as expected. However, Ctrl-Alt-F2 (or "switch user") bring me to a console login. Trying to "startx" tells me that "Server is already active for display 0" and recommends deleting the /tmp/.X-lock file. I don't want to do that and disable my main session; I want a second X session as another user. Any of the Ctrl-Alt-Fn combinations don't seem to help here.
Is this no longer possible in F10? The upgrade of my home desktop depends upon this functionality.

Dumb question - are you telling startx to use a different screen, instead of the default screen 0?
startx -- :1
