Good find! Perhaps I'll upload the patched X to my PPA. > But multiseat still doesn't work. I can login only in one of two > seats.

So my multiseat changes don't appear to affect this particular bug. That's unfortunate. I know that when selecting a user, LightDM (or maybe it's unity-greeter, I can't remember) does some PAM stuff to see if it's possible to log in without a password. Perhaps you have an uncommon PAM setup that is confusing LightDM/unity-greeter? > *) Tested with different seat names. First seat - seat01, second > seat - seat1.

If I understand correctly, the 'master-of-seat' udev tag should cause logind to create the second seat. (To avoid starting an X server before a video card is detected, logind won't create a seat until a device tagged with 'master-of-seat' appears.) Does 'udevadmin info --export-db' show the 'master-of-seat' tag on your video card? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to lightdm in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/976124 Title: lightdm multiseat: no login possible Status in Light Display Manager: In Progress Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Status in “lightdm” source package in Precise: Confirmed Bug description: I am testing a multiseat setup with precise: One XServer is running on intel graphics card, a second one is running on a DisplayLink (usb video) device.
