[Bug 978050] Re: Broadcasts not working properly in multiseat environment

 

Could you try this change?

sudo gedit /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/epoptes/ui/gui.py
line 279, change it from:
        self.execOnSelectedClients(["receive_broadcast", self.vncport, 
                                    self.pwd, fullscreen], mode=EM_SYSTEM_OR_SESSION)
to:
        self.execOnSelectedClients(["receive_broadcast", self.vncport, 
                                    self.pwd, fullscreen], mode=EM_SESSION_OR_SYSTEM)

Close an reopen epoptes, and see if it helped.

Title:
  Broadcasts not working properly in multiseat environment

Status in Epoptes:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  I have a multiseat setup in my lab, with 8 CPUs for 16 seats, using
  Userful Multiplier. Epoptes works very well with all seats, except for
  broadcasting. When I try to broadcast my server screen to all clients,
  sometimes it doesn't show at all, sometimes it shows in the first seat
  of each computer only.

  When I select the second seat (DISPLAY = :1) of a given computer and
  try to broadcast to that seat only, it shows in the first seat
  (DISPLAY = :0) anyway.

  Nevertheless, I can access each seat remotely without any problem.
