VGA console on screen 0, X on screen 1???

We're building a cluster with a bunch of dual DVI nVidia cards. The first port on each card is plugged into a KVM. The second port
is plugged into a stereo projector. Our system guys want to retain the VGA console on the KVM port--no X. At the same time we want
to run X on the projector. The kbd/mouse can stay with the console--we don't need them on the X port (output only renderer).

I've figured out how to start X on both ports (or Screens in X jargon). I also have succeeded in starting X on Screen 1 (the
projector) by running the startx command on the console. It startx X on Screen 1 OK, but blanks the console until X exits.

Does anyone know the XF86Config magic to make this work?

Thanks--
