X fatal server error with -seat option

[Floris]

Because multiseat doesn't work out-of-the-box with the Nvidia drivers I
try to figure out why.

The story so far:
create a udev rule for the nvidia device and attach it together with a
usb-hub to seat1
# loginctl seat-status seat1
seat1

Now the "magic" should happen, but there isn't a way to add a -layout
option to the X server, so the second seat remains black.I made a little
script to add that option to systemd-multi-seat-x (I renamed the original
systemd-multi-seat-x to systemd-multi-seat-x.org)

#!/bin/bash
echo "$@">>/var/log/multiseat.log

layout=$(echo "$@" | awk '{print $8}')
/lib/systemd/systemd-multi-seat-x.org "$@" -layout $layout
exit

Unfortunately, still no gdm or an other Xserver on seat1
The X server tries to start the right ServerLayout
...

But ends with:
...
[  1160.689] (EE) No devices detected.
[  1160.689]
Fatal server error:
[  1160.690] no screens found
[  1160.690] (EE)

I figured out that I can start a second Xserver with gnome3:
#DISPLAY=:1 startx -- -layout seat1 -sharevts
But this gnome session isn't aware of any udev seat rules so it isn't
really working

#DISPLAY=:1 startx -- -layout seat1 -sharevts -seat seat1
Ends with the same "Fatal server error:"
...
[  2188.890] (EE) No devices detected.
[  2188.890]
Fatal server error:
[  2188.890] no screens found

Bugs https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=878605
and https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=962907
about the same problem already exist, but aren't solved.

I hope that some of the developers will fix this issue.
