Oleg Samarin 7070ebeeba xfree86: add new key MatchSeat to xorg.conf sections "Device", "Screen", and "ServerLayout"
This patch introduces a new key MatchSeat in xorg.conf (also applies to
any .conf file in xorg.conf.d). It will allow targeting a given
"Device", "Screen", and/or "ServerLayout" section to a particular
seat only (specified by option "-seat" in X server command line),
so that other seats won't be affected.

Without this patch, one needs to write a separate xorg.conf.custom
file and pass it to X server via "-config" option, if one wants that
these settings only apply for the right seat. However, in some cases,
this solution is undesirable or even impossible (e.g. when using GDM,
which doesn't allow X server command line customization).

Example file (/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/seat1.conf), which would be ignored
by X server unless it was started with "-seat seat1" option:

Section "Device"
    Identifier "card0"
    Driver "nvidia"
    Option "NoLogo" "True"
    MatchSeat "seat1"
EndSection

					X Server

The X server accepts requests from client applications to create windows,
which are (normally rectangular) "virtual screens" that the client program
can draw into.

Windows are then composed on the actual screen by the X server
(or by a separate composite manager) as directed by the window manager,
which usually communicates with the user via graphical controls such as buttons
and draggable titlebars and borders.

For a comprehensive overview of X Server and X Window System, consult the
following article:

All questions regarding this software should be directed at the
Xorg mailing list:
