>From memory, there were bugs reported, but it seems it's: - almost abandoned - breaking change is by design; I don't think Xorg wants to support this kind of configuration.

Absolutely. I believe it's an issue in upstream; I did spend a little time trying to investigate/recompile/figure out which set of changes removed/broke this functionality, but ran out of time. At present to make multi-seat work I have to manually install and pin the old version of Xephyr.

It looks like Xephyr can't find any input drivers. I also tried specifying drivers (eg Evdev, libinput, keyboard, mouse, ...) Nothing worked.
