This worked in Intrepid

$ Xephyr -ac -screen 800x600 -br -reset -terminate :1.0 &
$

Then I could do

$ export DISPLAY=:1.0
$

Then run a program in the nested Xserver (I used this to run xnview 1.7
linux in KDE4 due to unresolvable transparency issues).

Now when I run

$ Xephyr -ac -screen 800x600 -br -reset -terminate :1.0 &

The following gets spit out in terminal and there is a hang and no
return to a prompt:

unrecognised device identifier!
(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (2)

(EE) config/hal: NewInputDeviceRequest failed (2)

When the Xephyr window is closed, this is reported:

XIO:  fatal IO error 11 (Resource temporarily unavailable) on X server ":0.0"
      after 50 requests (50 known processed) with 0 events remaining.
