Well, if you were using xdm as the display manager, you could edit
/etc/X11/xdm/Xservers and change

:0 local /usr/bin/X :0

to

:1 local /usr/bin/X :1

I do not know it kdm or gdm uses that config file, or have their
own. I know they did use it way back when I needed to add an extra X
server or two. But I have not worked with this lately. I am sure
there are tools to configure them now. Someone else here is sure to
know, and post the info...
