I run Debian Wheezy and have Xfce as my X-Window Manager on virtual console 7, which starts up automatically.
Once I've logged on and I'm using the xfce interface, is it possible for me to press Ctrl+Alt+F2 and move to another virtual console (non-X, console 2), and start an application in my, already running, x-session on console 7?
Also, can I do this remotely: say I have a laptop running Linux with Xfce running at home. Can I start an application on that instance of Xfce over ssh
from work?
