   This is possible, but multiple X-sessions must run in a different

You'll have to manually start the second one after starting the first one -
I don't have the commands, but this page may give some pointers.

  Not too hard - just follow the 'yum-2.1 and newer' section here:
http://kde-redhat.sourceforge.net/

   Then run the package updater.
