-what's cool thoug about the 2 seat solution is, that you can regulate the settings (like screen saver, stand by etc.) completely autonomous for the status monitor and it even show sthe status screen when the main screen is locked.. so this might still be a better solution for some situtations.. for example when the satus display is seen by more than just the user of the main screens.

 i am not sure if anybody else wants to use a setup like this, but here is how i did it anyway: i used 2 24" screens, 1 old 14" screen, two nvidia graphics cards (with two ports each) and one keyboard and mouse attached to one pc. the pc is running xubuntu 12.04 64bit with the latest nvidia driver package available for xubuntu.
