[gentoo-user] Intel Graphics Triple Monitor Setup

[Florian Philipp]

Hi List!

I think the answer will be No but I still want to ask:

Is it possible to use three displays (maybe even with three different
resolutions) with an Intel i915 chip? With a Dell Docking Station I
could use the display of my notebook, one VGA- and one DVI-connected
display, in theory ...

Thanks in advance!

Did you ever try this? I would expect the VGA and DVI connectors to  
be outputs of the same wosssisname, and simply to mirror each other.

Hmmmn... undoubtedly so, depending upon how you solder your wires to  
that chip. Most people will buy that chip already fitted in a  
motherboard or laptop  will be constrained by the outputs provided  
by the manufacturer.  ;)
