Hi,
Probably laptop users here:
I now run a multiseat desktop: 1 PC + 2 /videocards/monitors/keybds/mice
with Sid and the right xorg.conf.
But that is a huge amount of gear.
Much better to do a multi-seat laptop: you would need a laptop with 2
nvidia cards and 4 usb plugs.
You would plug an extra monitor into the extra videocard and an extra
keybd/mouse into 2 usb ports + setp xorg.conf.
Does that exist?
I'm missing something. How is a muti-seat desktop or laptop used? Why?
Two users, one computer. Remember the term "time sharing"?
But with hardware so cheap now it seems like a weird thing to do, especially
with a laptop.
