Until OpenSuSE 12.1 I had a working dualseat configuration with separated mice and keyboards for years. Now, with SuSE 12.2, xorg 7.6, two nvidia cards (610GT and 430GT) and the newest driver nvidia-computeG02-304.64-22.1.x86_64 I cannot even start two x Servers any more, no matter if I use one xorg.conf as shown below or two xorg.conf.seat[1,2] as recommended in http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Multiseat because when the display cable is connected to the second seat the X-Server now just crashes and the computer needs a reboot. The error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log says: NVIDIA(GPU-1): Failed to allocate EVO core DMA push buffer Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting and if you google this, you find in http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=185042 nvidia saying "Multiseat configurations are not supported, I'm afraid. Sorry." This is incredible, who the hell does such stupid things and: why? So after frustrating hours of playing with different graphic cards and configurations all I know is that I should never have updated the working configuration; the rest is nothing but bull shit. Now, for the very last chance before giving up with multiseat on Linux - are there any hints of wise old Scandinavian men left? Thanks, Ditmar. -- Ditmar, as you use recent version of xorg and most probably recent udev version, it is recommanded that you setup a hotplugged based setup. please refer to this tutorial: http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Multiseat this will most probably solve all your issues. An wise Scandinavian old man once said: "in the end, everything is going to be alright" <hr /> Hello, I've upgraded from OpenSuSE 12.1 to 12.2 with xorg 7.6 in a 2-seat environment and cannot separate mice any more. Different to the situation before the upgrade I cannot switch off Section "ServerLayout" Option "AutoEnableDevices" "on" Option "AutoAddDevices" "on" without switching off both mice. Switching it ON leads to the input off both keyb. and mice on both screens which makes the multiseat environment unusable. Switching it OFF leads to Xorg.[0,1].log config/udev: Adding input device Logitech USB Receiver (/dev/input/event0) AutoAddDevices is off - not adding device. although the keyboards DO work and config/udev: Adding input device Logitech Logitech BT Mini-Receiver (/dev/input/mouse1) AutoAddDevices is off - not adding device. and both mice are dead. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance, Ditmar. Here are the relevant sections of xorg.conf (keyboards use evdev): Section "InputDevice" # Maus Logitech EX 110 # ******************* Driver "mouse" Identifier "Mouse_Logitech_EX110" # Option "Device" "/dev/input/by-path/pci-0000:00:1d.0-usb-0:1.5:1.1- mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse0" Option "Buttons" "12" Option "Name" "ImExPS/2 Logitech Explorer Mouse" Option "Protocol" "explorerps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # Maus Logitech DiNovo mini # ************************* Identifier "Mouse_Logitech_DiNovomini" Driver "mouse" # Option "Device" "/dev/input/by-path/pci-0000:00:1d.0-usb-0:1.6.3:1.0- mouse" Option "Device" "/dev/input/mouse1" Option "Buttons" "12" Option "Name" "Logitech BT Mini-Receiver" Option "Protocol" "explorerps/2" Option "Vendor" "Sysp" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout[TFT]" InputDevice "Keyboard_Logitech_EX110" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse_Logitech_EX110" "CorePointer" Option "Clone" "off" Option "Xinerama" "off" Screen "Screen_TFT" Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" Option "AutoAddDevices" "on" # Option "AutoAddDevices" "off" Option "AutoEnableDevices" "on" # Option "AutoEnableDevices" "off" Option "IsolateDevice" "PCI:0:2:0" EndSection Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout[Beamer]" InputDevice "Keyboard_Logitech_DiNovomini" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse_Logitech_DiNovomini" "CorePointer" Option "Clone" "off" Option "Xinerama" "off" Screen "Screen_BEAMER" Option "AllowEmptyInput" "off" Option "AutoAddDevices" "on" # Option "AutoAddDevices" "off" Option "AutoEnableDevices" "on" # Option "AutoEnableDevices" "off" Option "IsolateDevice" "PCI:1:0:0" EndSection kdmrc uses: ^^^^^^^^ [X-:*-Core] ServerArgsLocal=-nolisten tcp -layout Layout[TFT] [X-:0-Core] ServerCmd=/usr/bin/X0 -br [X-:1-Core] ServerArgsLocal=-nolisten tcp -layout Layout[Beamer] -sharevts -novtswitch ServerCmd=/usr/bin/X1 -br vt8 </body></html>
