Howto use Xnest

[Joseph E. Sacco, Ph.D.]

You have been bitten by the wonders of Xauth. 

What you need to do is work your way through the X start up sequence to
gain an understanding of what gets started when and why.

For the impatient, give this a try:

(1) become root

(2) startx  --  /usr/X11R6/bin/Xnest  :1
