'lo everyone, I've got a keyboard driver built that handles multiple keyboards in X and Linux. That's right -- I can use multiple mice (which was previously done) along with multiple keyboards in X and Linux. (Again, that is not a typo -- the code actually works!) During the initialization process, it assigns each keyboard a tty, and only allows output to that tty (this involved changing input_dev in /include/linux/input.h). The driver also works in X (including newly opened pty's which I thought I might have a problem with!). Anyway, since the (assumed) goal here is to be able to run multiple X sessions _AND_ allow simlutaneous access, my problem/question is as follows (and yes, I do realize that this might be better asked on another list -- I'm hoping someone here may have insight as to which list to turn to or may have a solution): It should not be a problem to set up a multi-task between 2 X sessions, where each session is given a 5 millisecond time slice. However, there is one problem with this: X seems to send a monitor exit/reset everytime one switches tty's. That is, everytime I CTRL-ALT-FN, my monitor resets and then displays the new output. Clearly this is built into the X software somewhere -- does anyone know a) a good site to explain this process, b) where this exit/reset code is within the X code, or c) a good list to subscribe to that might help me with this problem.
