** Description changed: Previously lightdm.conf would allow configuration of multiple instances of the the display manager across multiple instances of the X server, using [Seat:<num>] section headers. These semantics could be used for multiseat setup as well as for using different virtual terminals to switch between X servers. Newer versions of lightdm ignore [Seat:<num>] sections. Multiseat configuration was changed to be more explicit, but no indication was given of how simply to configure multiple display manager instances bound to different X server instances. Unless newer versions support undocumented features, it would appear that the functionality of lightdm has regressed. This regression appears when Ubuntu release is upgraded to 14.10 from - 14.04 or earlier. The regression in confirmed in lightdm + 14.04 or earlier. The regression is confirmed in lightdm 1.12.1-0ubuntu1.
