I have two recent nvidia cards, but there are no DRM/fb interfaces for them
unless I load nouveau.ko. Nouveau does not provide full 3d-acceleration I need,
so I'd prefer to use Nvidia proprietary driver instead of nouveau. But nvidia
does not expose drm/fb interface. Moreover nvidia driver is loaded by Xorg, but
GDM needs to know about the seats before starting Xorg.

My proposition is to make capability of creating seats without drm/fb-enabled
devices. I've posted https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=878605 with
two patches that have allowed me to build fully 3d-accelerated multiseat
system.

Could your incorporate these patches or add similar capability to systemd
upstream?
