I'm a tad short on hardware for a second box at home for the moment. I do
however have enough for 2 complete sets of Keyboard Video and Mouse, and my
system is quadcore with 4GB ram. I'd like to configure the system to have
two completely independent terminals (sound I don't care about) But I have
not found a good way to do this. I have tried using VirtualBox and assigning
a keyboard and mouse to the guest only, but that only partially worked
(mouse only). Any example xorg.conf files would be appriciated (for nvidia
or nouveau w/3d as my kid likes games such as extremetuxracer and bzflag).
Thanks.


Here's an article about doing six terminals at once.

It's an old article, but probably still applies.
Note the comments under "Problems:" near the end of the
article.
