On SUSE Linux 9.0 I used to be able to see that with
last :0

But that does not work on SUSE Linux 10.0

Greetings James,

thank you for a fast answer. :o)

It still works here. last :0 by itself lists several lines, but
last > :0|grep still, shows who's currently on display 0.

That is trange.
Output from my command...
last :0
...gives me a blank line and a line saying:
wtmp begins Sat Feb 25 21:19:34 2006

Nothing else.

last with no options or parameters lists this:

As you can see there is no meintion of any X displays.

Does something need to be turned on or off for this to work?


Here's what mine shows.
