I'm half on my way...to get it going. (long)

[Peter S. <pet...@gm...>]

Hi,
first: Thanks for your work to get this killer feature running.

I'm trying to get the local-multiconsole up but am still running into
problems:

I installed the debian kernel-sources from schuldei. Build them
installed them, everything's fine:
cat /proc/bus/console/*/*
isa0060/serio0/input0

usb-0000:00:02.2-1.4/input0

It seems my 2nd keyboard is on vt18. vt17 is ...?

I've got a NVIDIA 5600xt. This card has two vga out, but only one
PCIbusID: PCI:2:0:0 (AGP).

My XF86Config looks like this:

...
Section "Device"
     #DFP (converter)
     Identifier  "nvidia0"
     VendorName  "nvidia"
     BoardName   "asus"
     Driver "nvidia"
     Option "NvAGP" "3"
     Option "NoLogo" "true"
     Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT-0"
     Screen 0
EndSection


Section "Device"
     #CRT
     Identifier  "nvidia1"
     VendorName  "nvidia"
     BoardName   "asus"
     Driver "nvidia"
     Option "NvAGP" "3"
     Option "NoLogo" "true"
     Option "ConnectedMonitor" "CRT-1"
     Screen 0
EndSection
...
Section "ServerLayout"
     Identifier "sesam0"
     Screen "sesam0"
#    Screen 1 "sesam1" rightof "sesam0" <--this works if enabled!


     InputDevice "logitech0"
     InputDevice "keyboard0"
#    Option "SingleCard" "true"  ???meaning
#    Option "PrefBusID" "PCI:2:0:0" ???meaning
EndSection


Section "ServerLayout"
     Identifier "sesam1"
     Screen "sesam1"
     InputDevice "logitech1"
     InputDevice "keyboard1"
#    Option "SingleCard" "true"
#    Option "PrefBusID" "PCI:2:0:0"
EndSection

I downloaded the deb packges for X from schuldei (compiling X is a
horror), did two links X0 and X1 to XFree86. Modified my gdm.conf:

0=Standard0 -layout sesam0 vt7
1=Standard1 -layout sesam1 vt18

[server-Standard0]
name=Standard server0
command=/usr/local/bin/X0  -deferglyphs 16 -nolisten tcp -audit 0
flexible=true

          [server-Standard1]
name=Standard server 1
command=/usr/local/bin/X1  -deferglyphs 16 -nolisten tcp -audit 0
flexible=true

BUT!!! If I start gdm following happens:
sesam0 on CRT-0 gets started (got picture every thing's fine)
but if sesam1 is started the first console goes into sleepmode and the
second console is fired up (on wich everything's fine). So I can't work
on both console at the same time :-(((.
I got exactly the same behavior on an unpatched kernel (though I could
switch between vt7 and vt8 and switched from one console to the other).

What did I do wrong?
What do the X options PrefBusID, SingleCard exactly mean?
Could this be a flaw in the Nvidia drivers? Though it works if used with 
  two screens and "LeftOf".

BTW: I'm not useing framebuffer, just VGA.

Took me 4 days to get this far...don't tell me it's not working :-)
Thanks for help, and sorry for the long posting.
