Has anyone done a multi seat setup?
I am trying to do it with lightdm which is supposed to have built in
ability for multiseat.
I am able to get two mouse pointers but not independent.
I get two keyboards but working as one.
Both screens are controlled by one user with one single login instead
of getting two independent lightdm login greeters.
my lightdm.conf
[LightDM]
start-default-seat=true
#[Seat:*]
[Seat:0]
xserver-command=/usr/bin/X :0
xserver-layout=HDMI
[Seat:1]
xserver-command=/usr/bin/X :1
xserver-layout=VGA
