Currently Nouveau does not support multiple X servers running parallel. Nouveau
requires DRM/DRI support, and the X server needs to get to be the DRI master
for that. This would require multi-master support throughout the graphics
stack, and it is still under development. This is not (yet) a Nouveau-specific
bug, Nouveau is just the only driver that refuses to start a second X server at
all (other drivers only miss DRI support on other X servers).

Changed the summary to a little more descriptive.
