gdmflexiserver − start a GDM session using the GDM flexible server mechanism, or in Xnest
gdmflexiserver GNOME options gdmflexiserver options
The flexi server mechanism allows to run GDM sessions on demand, in a new virtual console. The administrator can define multiple server configurations, using alternate X servers, or different options, in the gdm.conf file, and gdmflexiserver will present you with a menu, where you will be asked to choose between those server configurations marked with flexible=true.
Alternatively, the −−xnest option allows you to run a new session in an Xnest(1) window.
In addition to
the common Gtk and GNOME options,
gdmflexiserver accepts the following options:
−c command,
−−command=command

−n, −−xnest
Xnest mode
−l, −−no−lock

−d, −−debug
