AFAIK, systemd does not (yet) support multi-session correctly - but this is mostly irrelevant, unless you want to use dbus. Anyway, I don't think this is supported at all - what would be the expected behaviour when you run the same browser profile on both tty1 and tty2 ? What would happen when file conflict arises (same profile means both instances use the same directory for data)? -- jlk
