Good evening,
We have uploaded and made available our nested driver at xorg/drive
r/xf86-video-nested. It allows you to run an instance of X-server
within a program window. Instruction or in the ReadMe. It supports
basic mouse and keyboard operation. Window size is currently fixed
when you configure it, which is a change we hope to improve.
It is capable of multiple nestings, and you can run different versions
of X-server in each window. I don't know the full range of which ones
work, but we have used it with the 1.7s and the 1.9s.
I'm open to comments so try it and let us know what you think.

Hi,
I'm trying it now on my new multiseat system...
As far as I can look at it it's a very good sollution for multiseat. Let
the X server offer a display, maybe exist of more than one screen (every
monitor a different screen), which is the way to go with a videocard
with two heads, offer these different outputs as screens using Xinerama
like:
:99:0
and
:99:1
and make the "normal" display, where the login will be:
:0.0
and
:1.0
where the "source display" of :0.0 is :99.0, and for :1.0 is that of
course :99.1
I'havent been testing this yet, but is this possible??
And futher, is it also possible to use a "NX" display as source? Maybe
you know, NX is a protocol to have a remote display, like vnc, but then
much more efficient.
And finally, what is so different compared to Xephyr? Is it basically
the same technique or is it totally different??
