Triple Monitors?

gsibble · 08-19-2004, 01:51 PM

Hey everyone!

I'm setting up a RHEL server that is also going to be my linux desktop with dual 19" TFTs on a GeforceFX of some kind (AGP 8x).

Now I know how to setup a dual monitor setup in linux, but here is my real question:

Can I get a PCI or PCI-X (it's an opteron board) card and make a triple monitor setup for X? I've never done it before and I'm not quite sure how....

Is it possible or no?

hey i am trying to something similar with two radeon cards so that my two monitors are using two different cards......

it appears that what one needs to do well here is to be able to configure the XF86config-4 file....such that your cards are each given their own respective sections and then identified by the respective monitor.......such that you have seperate desktops....

we can work on this together if you like...but so far i haven't gotten any replies on my own post....

Regards,
