 lightdm:: The lightdm package in the PPA contains some patches that make it possible to support multiseat, although at the moment you must configure the seats manually (see the instructions below). Automatic multiseat support has not yet been added (see [[https://launchpad.net/bugs/1190581|bug #1190581]]).
 other packages:: The PPA contains some packages from saucy that have been backported to raring to complete logind support. The initial list of packages came from [[https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-core-dev/+archive/logind/+packages|the ubuntu-core-dev team's logind PPA]]. Please contact the Ubuntu Multiseat team if you are aware of any additional packages that need backporting to raring.

'''TODO:''' document what patches have been applied to what packages, whether those patches have been submitted upstream, and whether they have been accepted upstream		 See [[MultiseatTeam/Status]]
Line 14: Line 13:
== 1. Name Your Seats ==
Come up with names for your seats. You must have a primary seat named `seat0`. All other seat names must begin with `seat` (see [[http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/multiseat/|the rules for seat naming]]). Note that VT switching (and thus fast user switching) is (currently) only possible on `seat0`.
== 2. Configure Seat Hardware ==
Assign hardware devices to your seats by [[http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/systemd/multiseat/|setting up udev rules]]. Note that all hardware is assigned to `seat0` by default, so you only need to assign hardware to other seats.

Important notes:
 * For every seat other than `seat0`, you MUST:
  * set `ID_SEAT` to the name of the seat
  * add a tag named after the seat
 * Unless you are you are using open-source video drivers, you will probably be required to create a rule that adds the `master-of-seat` tag to the seat's (main) video card.
 * Use `udevadm trigger` after you edit your rules to make them take effect, and `udevadm info --export-db` to see what udev did with your devices (to debug your rules).
 * You MUST NOT have any newlines in a rule.

=== Example #1 ===
Example system #1 has two seats (`seat0` and `seat1`) and uses open-source video drivers. The file `/etc/udev/rules.d/99-multiseat.rules` was created and the following rules were added to it:
{{{
# assign USB ports
TAG=="seat", DEVPATH=="/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1d.7/usb2/*", ENV{ID_SEAT}="seat1", TAG+="seat1"

# assign video cards
TAG=="seat", DEVPATH=="/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:07.0/0000:03:00.0/*", ENV{ID_SEAT}="seat1", TAG+="seat1"
}}}

=== Example #2 ===
Example system #2 has two seats (`seat0` and `seat1`) and uses the proprietary NVIDIA driver. The file `/etc/udev/rules.d/99-multiseat.rules` was created and the following rules were added to it:
{{{
# assign USB ports
TAG=="seat", DEVPATH=="/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1a.0/usb1/1-1/1-1.6/*", ENV{ID_SEAT}="seat1", TAG+="seat1"

# assign video cards
TAG=="seat", DEVPATH=="/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/*", ENV{ID_SEAT}="seat1", TAG+="seat1"

# add master-of-seat tag to video cards
TAG=="seat", DEVPATH=="/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:01.0/0000:01:00.0/*", TAG+="master-of-seat"
TAG=="seat", DEVPATH=="/devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:02:00.0/*", TAG+="master-of-seat"
}}}

== 3. Configure lightdm ==
Modify your `lightdm.conf` and make sure you have an entry per seat. Add `xdg-seat=<seatname>` to each seat and add `xserver-vt=0` to each seat EXCEPT `seat0`. Example:
{{{
[Seat:0]
xdg-seat=seat0

[Seat:1]
xdg-seat=seat1
xserver-vt=0
}}}

== 4. Install PPA Packages ==
Upgrade to the packages in the multiseat PPA by running the following commands:
{{{
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:ubuntu-multiseat/ppa
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade
}}}

== 5. (raring only) install libpam-systemd ==
The `libpam-systemd` package replaces `libpam-xdg-support`.

== 6. Reboot ==

== 7. Profit! ==		 See [[MultiseatTeam/Instructions]]

Introduction

The MultiseatTeam maintains packages in the multiseat PPA. These packages are Ubuntu packages that have been patched to improve support for multiseat.

Known Issues

  • DVB device ACLs and MythTV: udev and logind want only logged-in users to have access to attached DVB devices. This is accomplished by setting up /dev ACLs when a user logs in. Unfortunately, this conflicts with MythTV, which always wants access to the TV tuner device(s). I'm not exactly sure how to fix this. Modifying /lib/udev/rules.d/70-uaccess.rules and 70-udev-acl.rules and commenting out the dvb lines seems to work, but is fragile -- those files will be replaced the next time systemd-services and udev are upgraded. udev apparently doesn't provide a way to remove a tag once one has been set, so putting a new file in /etc/udev/rules.d won't work. Anyone have any ideas?

  • bug #976124: On some systems, only one user can be logged in by typing a password at a time. All other users must be automatically logged in via LightDM's autologin-user setting.

  • Due to a technical limitation in Linux's virtual terminal subsystem and how it interacts with X, only seat0 can switch users. To switch users on another seat you must first log out and then log back in as the other user. Perhaps Mir, Wayland, and/or kmscon will address this.

  • LightDM is unaware that user switching is unsupported on non-seat0 seats. It will allow you to try to switch, but fails to switch.

  • bug #1190581: Automatic multiseat support has not yet been implemented Automatic multiseat support was added in release 1.11.7. Backported patches for v1.10 are available at trusty-updates repository.

  • bug #1356332: Proper nested-X-server multiseat support has not yet been implemented.

ChangeLog

2014-12-19

  • Delete trusty package gvfs from Multiseat PPA. After a closer look, we've found that package version already available at official repository already has all logind support we need. We recommend users to downgrade gvfs to the version available in official repository:
