Thought of another way ;)

Switch to the console on your local machine (alt-cntrl-F1) and login. Then run

 > X :2 -query <remote-host>

This is basically what the suggestion above does.

One other nice things about this, is if you use the local host name in place 
of <remote-host> you basically start a second X session on your local box. 
( This is effectively all that the 'switch-user' buttons in the latest 
KDE/gnome releases, but useful on systems which don't have this. )
