A short cut to this whole thing would be to work on getting a second head supported on a single X11 screen. Then 3D comes for free:

This solution provides Xinerama functionality without actually using the Xinerama wrapper.


Wouldn't this cause problems with the window manager (maximizing windows etc) and for fullscreen games? Part of the purpose of Xinerama is to provide hints to apps and WM for screen layout purposes.


Personally I am quite happy with having multiple static screens in the traditional X11 style and would very much like to see this working first (for separate gfx adapters and/or multiple crtc of a single adapter).
