Date: 27 Dec 1994 21:48:40 GMT Organization: State University of New York at Stony Brook Lines: 15 Message-ID: <3dq23o$7jt@adam.cc.sunysb.edu> NNTP-Posting-Host: libws4.ic.sunysb.edu X-Newsreader: TIN [version 1.2 PL2] Hi. I wanted to know if anyone has tryed to instal dual head monitors under FreeBSD. know that this can be done in Solaris O/S. You can drop in 2 video cards on the bus and have them respond to differents IRQ's and set up X-windows to take advantage of both monitors. You can configure your mouse to jump from one monitor to the nex when you move it outside the boundary of one of the monitors. It's great.. Can this be done in FreeBSD? Any help is greatly appreciated.. thanks.. Please email me at ralbuque@ic.sunysb.edu --rom
