: Question: Does anyone know a workaround to also lock people from
: switching to other VCs (at least the one X has been started from)??
O.K., can't stop people from switching around, but I found a way to
stop them from messing up my nice X.
I just put
stty intr undef quit undef
into the startx-script, right at the beginning. This way the server
can't be stopped on the VC on which it's been started (and which isn't
used anyway). At the end of startx I reset these parameters:
stty intr '^C' quit '^\'
and I'm all set.
(Of course one shouldn't forget the "Dontzap" in the Xconfig file;
otherwise there would still be the Alt-Ctrl-Backspace mess.)
Hank.
