Two sessions with GT 430

I want to start off by saying that I am LOVING Arch! Thank you to everyone who has contributed to this wonderful distro!

I am currently trying to get my machine setup so I have two separate sessions, one to my monitor and wired keyboard/mouse, and the other to my HDMI output and wireless keyboards and mice. I have had some success, but am running into a little problem. Right now my wireless keyboards are still feeding to my monitor's session, and I am not seeing any video to my HDMI.

My Xorg.0.log only contains two warnings:

(WW) Wireless Keyboard/Mouse: ignoring absolute axes.
(WW) Logitech USB Receiver: ignoring absolute axes.

But gdm/:0-greeter.log has quite a few more
