[Bug 1190581] Re: Support logind's automatic multiseat feature

 

Robert, I've not tested it yet, but I've noticed that lightdm currently
sets exit-on-failure for seat0 by default, which would make it exit
prematurely in that critical case.

Maybe we only need to wait until seat0 property CanGraphical changes to
true once before enabling exit-on-failure for this seat. What do you
think?

Title:
  Support logind's automatic multiseat feature

Status in Light Display Manager:
  Triaged
Status in “lightdm” package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Now that initial logind support
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/lightdm/+bug/930488 was released for
  LightDM, I'm opening this bug to request a step further: provide
  support to logind's automatic multiseat feature.

  I have absolutely no experience with D-Bus interfaces, but it seems
  that LightDM has its own D-Bus interface for seat management, so I
  don't know what would be better: replace it with logind D-Bus
  interface (if logind is present) or chaining both (e.g.: a logind's
  SeatNew D-Bus signal should trigger LightDM's SeatAdded D-Bus signal).
  Does it make sense?
