<h2>Linux Family Desktop</h2>

<i>Hopefully useful information, use at your own risk</i>

<p>This page describes the setup I use to run a Linux based desktop
system for my familiy. This is not about setting up debian. 
Installing debian is easier than most people think and
can be read elsewhere. This is about getting additional features -
most prominent 3d graphics and multi seat - up and running.

<h3>Multiseat</h3>

<p>Setting up a working multiseat is hard. This is partially due to the
fact that multi card setups are broken in most distros. The status of
the xorg head revision is somewhat unclear. 
See <a href="https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18160">18160</a>
for details.
</p>

<p>
Our <a href="xorg.conf">xorg.conf</a> and <a href="gdm.conf">gdm.conf</a> 
are provided as examples. The option <b>sharevts</b> that is according 
to all sources needed for multi seat setups is undocumented. 
So I only have a rough idea why my Xorg servers need to share vts.
For my setup it was however necessary to <b>omit</b> that option 
for the first seat.
