This works on Debian:
startx -- :2 vt8
, but on NixOS, the mouse and keyboard does not work and everything appears frozen. I am able to ssh in and kill the Xorg server.
I have tried to generate an Xorg file and start it as such:
sudo startx -- :2 vt8 -config /root/xorg.conf.new
With this, the same thing happens.
I’m at loss as to what I can do. Any pointers?
I’ve asked this question numerous times on this forum and I’m not getting any response. I’m not sure what I can do, cause I need this. Should I just file this as a bug, cause it should not freeze the screen if I start an X server?
This must be a bug, cause this works fine on newest Debian, which I just tried.
…or it’s just something else I need to add. To me, it seems like a permission problem to the keyboard and mouse, cause the system responds fine to SSH.
Not sure if you, @bzLem0n , with your Cage experience know how to start a second Xorg?;).
