Hi all, From: "Ivan R. Judson" <jud...@mcs.anl.gov>

Distributed Multihead X Project http://dmx.sourceforge.net/ Xdmx is proxy X server that provides multi-head support for multiple displays attached to different machines One of anxieties is video performance. Is Xdmx able to perform well enough for VIC? Note that today I've noticed that the newest development version of Fedora Core now has the Xdmx: % rpm -qi xorg-x11-Xdmx Name : xorg-x11-Xdmx Relocations: (not relocatable) Version : 6.8.1 Vendor: Red Hat, Inc. Release : 3 Build Date: Tue Sep 21 10:23:16 2004Install Date: Mon Sep 27 20:11:46 2004 Build Host: tweety.build.redhat.com Group : User Interface/X Source RPM: xorg-x11-6.8.1-3.src.rpmSize : 2015581 License: MIT/X11, and others Signature : (none) Packager : Red Hat, Inc. <http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla> URL : http://xorg.freedesktop.org Summary : Distributed Multihead X Server and utilities Description : Xdmx is proxy X server that provides multi-head support for multiple displays attached to different machines (each of which is running a typical X server). When Xinerama is used with Xdmx, the multiple displays on multiple machines are presented to the user as a single unified screen. A simple application for Xdmx would be to provide multi-head support using two desktop machines, each of which has a single display device attached to it. A complex application for Xdmx would be to unify a 4 by 4 grid of 1280x1024 displays (each attached to one of 16 computers) into a unified 5120x4096 display.
