Hello gentooers,

probably its trivial, but i did never tried to use two X servers on
different vc's...

.... the proposal is to use vc/7 for normal activities and vc/8 with another
xorg running at "768x576" with only xawtv on it.

when i tried to fullscreen xawtv telling him to use "800x600" as resolution
it still leave "1280x1024" as virtual res, hence i have to move mouse in
order to position xawtv at the center of the screen.

any suggestion dears?

Just a guess, and reading man startx and man Xorg:

startx -vt8 -- -screen ScreenLowres :1

where ScreenLowres is a new "Screen" section in xorg.conf that specifies
"768x576"
