I was actually thinking of using X.Org. You should be able to get a config files that drives more than one monitor (wether on a multi homed card or on different cards or maybe a mix) and more than one mouse/keyboard (at most one of which might be PS/2 and the others have to be USB). While experimenting, I once got up to having two completely independent screens, but I only had one keyboard and mouse. bye av.
