Does it have to be linux?
I have 5 contiguous 1400x1050 x x x x x giving 7000x1050 in Winxp, if you are
using GEM windows might be a solution
what would be the problem with linux?

Subject: Re: [PD] many DVI ports with Debian/Ubuntu and Gem
The screens we are currently specing are 1080p, so each output should
be able to do 1080. The idea is to have 10 contiguous screens all in
a line show one Gem space. They can show up on the computer as
contiguous or separate screens, that doesn't matter, I can handle the
difference in Gem. I think it might be easier to have them show up as
separate screens.
I can break it up across multiple computers if that's easier, I'm
mostly trying to reduce the expense. I am just showing images, so not
heavy on the CPU/GPU.

hello,
with things like doublehead2go, or triplehead2go :

you can easily have lot's of screen on 1 computer.
(downside is that the screen are only horizontal)
i made a 6 screen installation with a 400€ desktop having good
performance.
(GPU was a NVIDIA 9600 or something : only use nvidia gpu on linux
if you need good performance and are not afraid of proprietary
driver).
but what is the resolution of the screen?
to have a screen disposition like this :
x x x
x x x
is less a problem than like this :
x x x x x x
The size of openGL windows is hardware limited. usually 4096x4096,
but can go up to 8192x8192 with GPU having lot's of memory (go for
1go video Ram).

to run it on as few computers as possible. Anyone have any
recommendations for Debian or Ubuntu setups that can have like many
DVI
ports in one computer?
