[Bug 1529454] [NEW] dm-tool add-nested-seat fails

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

On Wily, updated daily:

petter@odin:~$ ac policy lightdm
lightdm:
  Installed: 1.16.6-0ubuntu1
  Candidate: 1.16.6-0ubuntu1

petter@odin:~$ dm-tool add-nested-seat 
Unable to add seat: GDBus.Error:org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.Failed: Failed to start seat

I was hoping to get a nested X server with lightdm, but  the Xephyr
windows briefly opens and then closes again. I have tried this on two
different installations of Wily with the same results. If I try to start
Xephyr manually and then start lightdm on it with 'dm-tool add-
local-x-seat' then dm-tool fails with exactly the same error message as
above.
