you mean by doing something different than:

startx --:2

which will place another session of X on the next tty (tty7 in your case).

it's been a while since i've used this, but give it a try.

to give it 24 bit color depth (if it is not your default) try:

startx --:2 -bpp 24

changing 24 to 16 would swap it to 16 bit color.

you probably get the idea.
