Hello!
I'm new to the ML. I sifted through last year posts but I dont'
think my question has been brought up before. If it has, apologies,
and I will appreciate if you could point me in the right direction.
I have a working dual seat machine, currently running Ubuntu. The
dual seat works by starting two different X servers via the LightDM,
each of them governed by its own xorg.conf file. Something like:
[Seat:0]
xserver-command=/usr/bin/X :0
xserver-config=seat0.conf
[Seat:1]
xserver-command=/usr/bin/X :1 -sharevts
xserver-config=seat1.conf
I am in the process of switching to Fedora, but I am struggling to
find out how should I configure gdm.conf to achieve the same result.
On Gentoo and Arch I found the syntax allegedly deprecated in 2.20
that looks like:
[servers]
0=Standard0
1=Standard1
[server-Standard0]
name=Standard server
command=/usr/bin/X -nolisten tcp -novtswitch -sharevts -r
-config xorg.conf.multiseat -layout seat0
flexible=true
[server-Standard1]
name=Standard server
command=/usr/bin/X -nolisten tcp -novtswitch -sharevts -r
-config xorg.conf.multiseat -layout seat1
flexible=true
but looking at the documentation for 3.10 (the default on Fedora 20)
https://help.gnome.org/admin/gdm/3.10/configuration.html.en
I could not find anything even similar to that.
Bottom-line: **How can I tell GDM to start two instances of the X
server, and show a greeter on each of them?
Thank you in advance for your help! :)
