Hello,
Does anyone know if there is an X keyboard shortcut that can bring focus to a second X session. I have a multiple monitor setup where I run multiple X sessions. (only way it worked for me). Rather than having to move the mouse between the two X sessions to be able to Alt+tab to windows, I was wondering if there was a keyboard shortcut for doing this.
Or, maybe there is a way to set up a keyboard shortcut, by calling an X11 routine or something....
Thoughts?

I guess I should clarify, I am running both X sessions on the tty7. chvt will not work. I am looking for a way to switch between Display 0 and Display 1. (without using the mouse the move beteen the two..).
Sorry for being unclear.

Google for mouse-switchscreen and mouse-wrapscreen. I used to use them before I decided to use Twinview.

That looks like it will work. Googleing lead me to this forum post:

I will try it out when I get a chance.
