Actually, my main box is using an Intel G965 now, but I don't think it supports Xinerama either. At least the man page didn't say it was. I was trying to enable Xinerama at the server level and forgot about the driver level. > Xnest -noreset -ac -geometry 640x480 :1 &>/dev/null & > Xnest -noreset -ac -geometry 512x384 :2 &>/dev/null & > Xdmx -display :1 -display :2 :3 > (it prints the failed assertion - I have to test if this is fixed in the > latest git before reporting upstream, feel free to race with me) There were a whole ton of fixes that went in for Xdmx since the last release, so it's possible.

I'll try one of those out. I've been meaning to play with VMware for a while, anyway. -- Dan -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
