Adam, Nobody has tackled the challenge of multi head DRI support as of yet. Here at TG we've recently put some time into considering various designs and came up with the following architectural diagrams: http://www.tungstengraphics.com/dri/Multihead_DH.txt http://www.tungstengraphics.com/dri/Simple_Xinerama_DH.txt http://www.tungstengraphics.com/dri/Tradition_Xinerama_DH.txt http://www.tungstengraphics.com/dri/Traditional_Xinerama.txt The second case, Simple Xinerama on a Dual Head graphics engine would be a good case to start with. The primary effort would be setting up the secondary display and exporting the proper xinerama extension information so that window managers know that real monitor layout. If anybody is interested in tackling this development, I'll be happy to post more information on the list.
