Yes, you wouldn't even need SSH, you can just export the DISPLAY and make sure the other user is allowed to connect to the XServer (see xhost) The problem with a full session, e.g. the one started by startkde is, that it includes certain services, e.g. window manager, session manager, which require to be the only one of their kind per DISPLAY. Since your usecase is two users on the same machines, I'd recommend going for a nested XServer approach. This is very common among desktop developers, e.g. running a development KDE 4 session inside a KDE3 session [1] Cheers, Kevin [1] http://techbase.kde.org/index.php?title=Getting_Started/Set_up_KDE_4_for_development#Launching_KDE_4_apps_.26_sessions -- Kevin Krammer, KDE developer, xdg-utils developer KDE user support, developer mentoring
