Anyone knows how to properly start a multiseat wayland with a desktop environment or window manager running?

I just need simple stuff such as profile initialization of the user and if it's possible to just share the same discrete GPU across multiple seats?

The end result? I want to isolate my current user space from the gaming space where I can just connect using moonlight/sunshine. I want it all headless.

I've tried it and it went horribly. By default it doesn't stream your desktop, just some apps so I tried to change the config file according to their docs but made a mistake, now it's brokie. I deleted the config file and the entire /etc/wolf directory but it's still fricced. (I am on Mint and used podman-docker instead of real docker)

Before I broke it, I could open up a black screen which should in theory be a sign that it's still installing stuff in the container but I was too inpatient to find out.

I suppose the bottom line is that it's still in alpha. I might try it again with the help of their discord or something when I get time for it but idk when that will happen lol.
