For first sesion
$ startx -- :0 -layout first vt7
For second sesion
$ startx -- :1 -layout second vt8

Linux kernel allow only one current VT. If You switch to vt7 , then second
X server do pause while vt8 become active. Your different input devices
are defined in "first" or "second" server layout section, file
/etc/X11/XF86Config-4

Both servers must start gdm, or You can start 2nd X server from xterm
inside 1st X server.
