Why proprietary rather than FOSS driver? I have GeForce 8400GS (GT218) running TW 20160406, without using startup xrandr or any non-default configuration in xorg.conf*, with Plasma sessions on tty3 (simply startx) and tty4 (startx -- :1) and IceWM (startx /usr/bin/icewm) on tty5, all same user login. Other than not finding them on tty7 & up where they used to be, they seem to work same as always, as with Intel or ATI gfxchips. I have a Maxwell based graphics card (Geforce GTX 750). nouveau (Tumbleweed version) does not run with this card. I already tried this.
Kernel 4.6 will provide support for the Maxwell graphic cards. I am not sure, if a Mesa and/or xf86-video-nouveau update will be necessary too.
Since the proprietary driver can run multiple sessions with "startx", I doubt, that not the driver itself causes the problem. Maybe something with systemd, KDM/SDDM ...?
Is there anyone who runs multiple sessions with KDE Plasma5 and KDM or SDDM and the NVidia driver successfully?
yes, I have three atm, twm, icewm-lite and plasma5. I started plasma5 with "systemctl isolate graphical" and the other with "starx /bin/... -- :#" from a <user> xterm but starting from a tty works as well.
