screen 8, means multiple display, opening only display number 8.

you can have screen 0 xxxxxx
then start from another shell X-server
screen 1 xxxxxx
then
screen 2 xxxxx

0-8, 9 screens are supported... but will not work on all the 
video cards...  

On my Win2K with GeForce cards, I can run multiple instances of Xwin,
as I described, and switch back and forth between displays using alt+tab
one display connected to SGI IRIS, other to LINUX, 3rd to Sun SPARC
