Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : multiseat Version : 0.9.10 Upstream Author : Fabio Massimo Di Nitto and Daniel Stone * URL : ftp://ftp.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/pool/main/m/multiseat/ * License : GNU GPL Description : administration and configuration tools for multiseat systems
This package contains scripts and configuration files to configure a multiseat system, including a hotplug daemon script to handle user-specific device hotplug events automatically. Ubuntu already include this package, which is an implementation of the four in one computer system first pioneered by HP. The idea is to stick four video cards, keyboards and mouses on one machine, and configure X to provide 4 login environment on the machine, this cutting the cost per seat dramaticaly. A PDf explaining the system from HP is available from <URL: http://www.hp.com/hpinfo/newsroom/press_kits/2004/einclusion/ds_441_desktops.pdf >. I believe we should include this system in Debian, and thus request this package. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
