Multiseat is available, at least in beta. http://wiki.c3sl.ufpr.br/multiseat/index.php/Main_Page I've been running multiseat based on nvidia binary drivers for quite a while. It's an unsupported configuration but it works quite well. I'll try to get some time and document what I've done. It's not hard. I do some udev magic to ID the keyboard and then it's a piece of cake.
