So what needs fixing to enable second user, while first user has logged in
via gdm/kdm/xdm, to login on tty[1-6], then open an X session as in the
past, like still works in Mageia 3 and Fedora 19?

setuid /usr/bin/Xorg

This has been a problem for several versions.  I do not know why, but...

I think the problem changed lately. I remember seeing the question many times for several versions. The answer I remember is uncommenting /usr/bin/Xorg root:root 4711 in permissions.local. What I don't remember but what I think changed is the death of SuSEConfig, which is what I think actually did anything with that comment's removal. Now that I've done chmod 4711 /usr/bin/Xorg the problem is solved, for what's currently booted anyway. It was set to 0755. :-p

Thx. :-)
