Hello,

things are getting worse than ever. Until OpenSuSE 12.1 I had a working
dualseat configuration with separated mice and keyboards for years. Now,
with SuSE 12.2, xorg 7.6, two nvidia cards (610GT and 430GT) and the
newest driver nvidia-computeG02-304.64-22.1.x86_64 I cannot even start
two x Servers any more, no matter if I use one xorg.conf as shown below
or two xorg.conf.seat[1,2] as recommended in
http://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/Multiseat because when the display cable is
connected to the second seat the X-Server now just crashes and the
computer needs a reboot.

The error messages in /var/log/Xorg.0.log says:

NVIDIA(GPU-1): Failed to allocate EVO core DMA push buffer

Caught signal 11 (Segmentation fault). Server aborting

and if you google this, you find in
http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=185042

nvidia saying "Multiseat configurations are not supported, I'm afraid.
Sorry."

This is correct, it's not supported, but reports like this one do help us prioritize feature requests.

This is incredible, who the hell does such stupid things and: why?

So after frustrating hours of playing with different graphic cards and
configurations all I know is that I should never have updated the
working configuration; the rest is nothing but bull shit.

Now, for the very last chance before giving up with multiseat on Linux -
are there any hints of wise old Scandinavian men left?

I doubt it will help, and I don't want to imply that we're going to support these configurations, but does setting

  Option "ProbeAllGpus" "off"

in both xorg.conf files help?
