Question about multihead in suse

sailershen · 09-17-2005, 10:14 PM

My linux box have two displays with two video cards, a pair of ps/2 keyboard/mouse, a pair of usb key/mouse, now I can set the multihead is "Traditional" mode, so they can show different desktop in two displays, but I don't know who to control the ps/2 & USB keyboard/mouse ? In two displays, there're only one mouse point, I want the ps/2 k/m and USB k/m can work independence with different display.
Thanks

This isn't something you do, really now is it? That's weird... having said that in Linux world you can guarentee someone will always have tried it before you have...

But it's not a normal thing... so it looks pretty unweildy, and this isn't that recent.

You are going to want to read more than a few posts on this Google Linux search on Backstreet Ruby which is what you will need to do what you want.
