We can have multiseat under Wayland? That would be so cool
multiseat has been working with Wayland+Weston, etc for a very long time, this is GDM and i don’t know if they will have settings in Gnome for this to work out of the box or not that would be cool if they coded it with a GPU/Video output selector.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=WO2L_ihO_rI

Do you know if it is possible to have multiple seats on a single gpu or is it one session for each gpu?
Crude multiseat’s can use one GPU, anti-cheat may or will ban multiseat users.
The linked video, as someone pointed out in the comments, is showcasing multipointer though
We call them crude multiseat’s, also n3rdopolis posted a Video of it running a full multiseat, and it has a graphical utility for configuring weston multiseat, and multi pointer.
What is multiseat?
Depends on the definition you choose, but for me it’s the ability to hook up multiple monitors to one PC and have distinct login sessions running concurrently each using its own monitor as well as any paired peripherals like keyboard, mouse, etc. So you can have 2 or more users using a single computer at the same time.
It’s like a modern-day mainframe with many terminals in conceptThat sounds really cool. But also too elaborate for anything I use my PC for. Although I briefly looked into the idea of Proxmox for something similar.
Same here, I wouldn’t actually have a use for it right now, but having it you can bet I’d try to use it at least one time for the “novelty” of it (even though it’s anything but novel lol)
Proxmox for something similar
Like by having various VMs running and accessing them from different PCs?

That’s easy in Proxmox, but you can also passthrough USB and display devices directly in order to access a virtualized OS directly on the PC running it. I read some people run virtualized Hackintosh in this way.
That’s neat!
More stable GDM would be awesome. Good to see that Package kit might become less of a memory hog. Cool that they’re rewriting the renderer in the maps app, too.
Gnome 45 is looking like it’ll be a big update!
Not looking forward to the extension breakage though, and this time it looks like you can’t simply edit the version in the extension to force it to be compatible…
Yea, it’s not the hardest porting effort ever because GJS isn’t that far from normal JS but it’s universal breakage because some syntax will change with that move!
I was really hoping for mutter-vrr to get merged this release. I am happy to see yet another massive update for gnome though.
