[Bug 893590] [NEW] Control-C causes LightDM to restart in a Multiseat configuration

 

Public bug reported:

A single computer is setup in a Multiseat setup (2 keyboards, 2 mice, 2
video cards, 2 users).  LightDM is configured to allow multiseat so that
multiple users can run X sessions simultaneously with -sharevts and
-novtswitch options passed to the X server.

On ONE of the seat greeters, pressing the keyboard combination
"Control-C" causes ONE of the LightDM greeter sessions to quit and
restart the associated X server.  On the other seat "Control-C" has no
(negative) effect.  This happens regardless of whether LightDM is
sitting in the login screen or whether the user has logged in to a
desktop environment.  Pressing "Control-C" in the desktop environment
(to copy text for pasting later) causes the LightDM greeter session to
quit (as seen in the lightdm log), and then restart the X session.
