Hi

I am trying to start weston on a second XDG_SEAT
Unless if I am missing something, or there is a way to emulate a full TTY (not
just a PTY) Only seat0 allows TTYs

In my testing, I start bash on seat1 with
systemd-run --setenv=XDG_SEAT=seat1 -p PAMName=login -p User=username -t bash

and then try to start Weston
weston --seat=seat1

I get "logind: session not running on a VT"
I even try to specify --tty=/dev/ttyX , and get the same error.

I tried to use the weston-launch, and weston-launch then wants to run on a VT
as well...

Am I missing something? I don't know if it is possible to associate TTYs with
seats other than seat0 based on some things I read...

Thanks
