manage the main camera, etc. Mathias used the slave camera feature of
osgViewer to provide a "video wall" style of multiple displays that was
demonstrated at LinuxTag for 2 years, (I think!). I later generalized this
to support general monitor arrangements (like a panoramic arc) and general
combinations of screens and graphics cards. I don't know if the LinuxTag
demo team uses the original video wall feature (still supported) or the
"new" stuff.
