So that more than one person can work simultaneously on it. We are thinking about using such a setup for a computer litteracy project in our rural areas. We have a student playing with it and he can get the different screens with different mice running one at a time. But we can't get them running simultaneously and can get different keyboards running. Any help and ideas welcome. :-) John -- John Hay -- John.Hay@meraka.csir.co.za / jhay@FreeBSD.org
