Also Java 3D version 1.3 beta 1 or later is required to use the multi-screen
information supplied by the new JDK.

This restriction only applies to multiple screens which are aggregated by the
window system or driver into one large virtual screen.  If the screens are
independent (i.e., you can't move windows from one screen to another and they
aren't addressable in a single contiguous pixel space) then Java 3D 1.2 with
JDK 1.3.1 should work fine.

Hi Jack-

You need to use jdk version 1.4.0-beta3 in order have java recognize
your dual headed beast.....

  Hi,

  I have a question that hopefully Mark Hood or someone else can answer. I
am using a
  FireGL 4 card with dual heads. Java ones detects 1 GraphicsDevice (a large
2048 x 768 screen over 2 screens).
  The 8 x 6 foot screens I am using are at a 45 degree alignment to each
other.

  I would like to set up the screens using
setTrackerBaseToImagePlate(Transform3D t) which I have done
  before with 2 video cards but I cant do now because I only have 1
GraphicsDevice.

  My boss who bought the FireGL 4 thinks this can be done no problem. Any
Ideas?
