Multiple Xservers and VT-Switch

Hi,

I'm working on a small X.org module that will provide remote desktop 
capabilities to an Xserver but i'm stuck with VT-Switch problems.

When using my module with only one user, everything is OK. But with a 
second user (with a second Xserver), the first one freezes.

I think that this problem is caused by VT-Switch that disable inputs and 
outputs from the first Xserver when starting the second.

Is there a way to avoid this behavior and allow 2 or more servers to run 
and act at the same time ?

I'v been looking at this <http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/Xdummy> to 
address the problem but i think i can use a better approach from the 
module code than the one used used in Xdummy (LD_PRELOAD).

Thanks in advance.
