Description Tomas Pelka 2013-09-24 10:12:01 UTC

Description of problem:
When usb multiseat client connected the user switch applet is acting differently on PC (session #1) and in multiseat client (session #2, different user).

For session #1 I can still switch users and I'm able to start session as user currently logged in session #2.

Fro session #2 the user switch is blocked.

My multiseat device is Plugable UD-160-M.

Comment 2 Matthias Clasen 2013-11-06 12:01:34 UTC

this is a limitation of the current multiseat technology - there are no vts on other heads.
