======Project: Multi-seat Linux======

Tom and I were unable to get this project working,we spent probably 6 hours trying different things before we gave up

=====Prerequisites=====
Linux/*BSD Desktop Install

=====Attributes=====
I am really looking forward to learning how the lair set up the multi-seating

=====Procedure=====

Install GDM and make X server links
	Assuming that you already have xorg installed, also install gdm. 
	Make links to to the X server: 
	/X11R6/bin/X1
	
 **for xorg:**
 ln -sf /usr/bin/X /usr/bin/X0
 ln -sf /usr/bin/X /usr/bin/X1
3.	Make appropriate changes in /etc/gdm/gdm.conf
 
...

# Definition of the standard X server.
[server-Standard]
name=Standard server
command=/usr/bin/X1 :0 -layout X1 -dpi 110 -deferglyphs 16 -isolateDevice PCI:0:10:0 vt7
flexible=true

...

# Definition of the second X server.

[server-2nd]

name=2nd server

command=/usr/bin/X0 :1 -layout X0 -dpi 110 -deferglyphs 16 -isolateDevice PCI:1:0:0 -sharevts

flexible=true

...

Depending on how many users you will support. The above supports 2. 
The PCI addresses you get via lspci: 

...

00:0a.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 440 AGP 8x] (rev a2)

...

01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: nVidia Corporation NV18 [GeForce4 MX 4000 AGP 8x] (rev c1)

...

Setup xorg.conf for multiple users
	
**Setup the keyboard Input Device sections:** 

 Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier       "Keyboard0"
        Driver           "evdev"
        Option           "Phys"           "isa0060/serio1/input0"
        Option           "XkbLayout"      "us_intl"
 EndSection

 Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier       "Keyboard1"
        Driver           "evdev"
        Option           "Phys"           "isa0060/serio0/input0"
        Option           "XkbLayout"      "us_intl"
 EndSection
 
**The Phys option data is gotten from /proc/bus/input/devices The first 2 entries read as follows:** 

 I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0001 Product=0002 Version=ab83

 N: Name="AT Raw Set 2 keyboard"

 P: Phys=isa0060/serio1/input0

 S: Sysfs=/class/input/input0

 H: Handlers=kbd event0

 B: EV=120013

 B: KEY=4 2000000 3802078 f840d001 f2ffffdf ffefffff ffffffff fffffffe

 B: MSC=10

 B: LED=7

------------------------------------------------

 I: Bus=0011 Vendor=0001 Product=0001 Version=ab41

 N: Name="AT Translated Set 2 keyboard"

 P: Phys=isa0060/serio0/input0

 S: Sysfs=/class/input/input1

 H: Handlers=kbd event1

 B: EV=120013

 B: KEY=4 2000000 3802078 f840d001 f2ffffdf ffefffff ffffffff fffffffe

 B: MSC=10

 B: LED=7


 **Setup the mouse Input Device sections:** 

  Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Mouse0"
        Driver          "evdev"
        Option          "Device" "/dev/input/event3" 
        Option          "Name" "A4Tech USB Optical Mouse"
        Option          "ZAxisMapping"          "6 7 4 5"
        Option          "Buttons"               "12"
 EndSection


 Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Mouse1"
        Driver          "evdev"
        Option          "Device" "/dev/input/event4" 
        Option          "Name" "A4Tech USB Optical Mouse"
        Option          "ZAxisMapping"          "6 7 4 5"
        Option          "Buttons"               "12"
 EndSection
 


**The Device data is gotten from the same source as the keyboards and reads as follows:** 
 I: Bus=000
