I have been having problems finding documentation on how to set up gdm3
for a multiseat environment in debian version >Jessie. I've looked on
the gdm website:
https://help.gnome.org/admin/gdm/stable/
but to no-avail.
In general I've found a lot of information on the previous version of
gdm located on the web, but not for gdm3. Can anyone >point me to a
link. Are the commands the same as in gdm2 and since there is no
gdm.conf file any longer should I put the >directives in the daemon.conf
file?
Thanks,
Joshua
Multiseat is build-in in gdm3, so there is no configuration file.
So how to make a multiseat?
- you must use systemd
- remove old Xorg.conf multiseat files! (a Nvidia file is fine)
- run $ loginctl seat-status seat0
and find the keyboard, mouse and Gpu you want to use on your second seat
(the gpu must be a "master" device)
- run $ loginctl attach seat1 /sys/devices/pci.../.../.../your/mouse
for your mouse, keyboard and Gpu
log-off and log-on and gdm3 will appear on both screens
Success,
Floris
