Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Hi there, As I understand it, multi-headed X servers allow multiple monitors to be used as one desktop. Does this also cover running multiple instances of an Xserver with seperate card/monitor pairs?? Basically, I want to start three Xservers (Mach64) on the three installed graphics cards (ATI Rage II+). I know how to start the three servers (:0 :1 and :2) but cannot work out how to use the different cards. One last thing, I've looked at XiG's servers, and Metro-X -- neither of which appear to be free nor compatible with the cards. Any help sincerely appreciated.
