Just out of curiosity, HN seems like a good place to ask: Does anyone actually here use unix-likes in a multiseat fashion, like they were used 30-40 years ago? Like described here: <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiseat_configuration" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Multiseat_configuration</a>

&quot;Thin client&quot; in this case means X Server.

Cool. I&#x27;m currently working on a VDI solution using the rPI as a thin client for a chain Retailer in the DC area. We plan to use RFID Cards as authentication - a &quot;roaming vdi&quot;. VMs are mint Linux and run on top of KVM.

How&#x27;s the screen refresh rate? I have an Arch distro on my Pi, used mostly for remoting purposes. RDesktop works really well, but the refresh rate is slow... 1-10 fps in most cases. I was hoping to bump it up to 50-60.

I wonder how this will work if I have Ubuntu on Hyper V.
