I want to run R in a virtual console and RCommander in a separate virtual console. Or maybe I want to run a game in a virtual console and shut off the desktop. Or maybe I want to pipe an ssh -x terminal to a virtual console.

How can I tell Virtual Console 3 to open a graphical virtual console in Virtual Console 9?
