| their software which turns 1 PC into 10. Demand
| for its $69 virtual desktops (education

Proper Multi-Seat X Support Is On The Way
,----[ Quote ]
| While multi-seat computing has been available on Linux for years, it's often
| been a chore to setup and required some time. Beyond just being time
| consuming and an unnecessary hassle, the way of setting up a multi-seat
| computer through an X Server with multiple nested Xephyr servers is not
| pleasant. There have been several attempts at improving the multi-seat Linux
| experience by creating a multi-seat display manager and taking various other
| steps, but to date this is still a challenge to setup. The good news though
| is that this may soon change.
