> ConsoleKit is a FreeDesktop framework for defining and tracking users,
> login sessions and seats. ConsoleKit has two main purposes:
>
> - To maintain a database of information about each running session
> which the display manager (GDM) uses. The old GDM keeps track of
> this information internally, but new versions of GDM (2.21 and
> later) use ConsoleKit.
> - To support switching sessions and session migration when using
>
What is "session migration" here? Does it mean the session can be
migrated from
one VT to another VT? With VT, will ConsoleKit be noticed the session
switch?
Session switch may automatically cause the keyboard and mouse migration
between sessions. Currently in Solaris, graphics session will grab the
mouse and keyboard input from the text session in the session switch.

How ConsoleKit know which seat the session belong to?
