Try delaying the start of X on your second seat to see if that helps. First, create a wrapper script around X that pauses before starting X: sudo tee /usr/bin/Xdelayed <<EOF >/dev/null #!/bin/sh sleep 10 exec /usr/bin/X "$@" EOF sudo chmod a+rx /usr/bin/Xdelayed Next, modify your second seat config in /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf to use the wrapper script: [Seat:1] xserver-vt=0 xdg-seat=seat1 xserver-command=/usr/bin/Xdelayed <whatever arguments you usually use> Finally, restart lightdm (sudo service lightdm restart) or reboot and see what happens. (I know you know how to create scripts and restart lightdm and whatnot, I'm just trying to be detailed for the benefit of the lurkers reading this bug report.) -- 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: Confirmed Status in “lightdm” package in Ubuntu: Confirmed 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.
