Some years ago Abberfield Industies, UK used to supply a seven port master. It would time-slice between each 'user'. It utilised frame buffers on specific video cards (Oak technology, Tseng eg) to keep the users apart and had no trouble time sharing keyboards and meeces (serial only). I am only aware of an mgetty time-sharing tty replacement for use under Unix (supplied with the 7port black box), and this is going back a bit. There may/may not be a more robust gui update since then. Feed google 'abberfield' and see what comes up. PS be aware that as far as video is concerned, although it is of course possible to have a single vga, multiple pci (I have one for Autocad) , pci based vga cards are difficult to come by, and, afaik, Xfree does not support multiple video slots. Although this was supposed to happen at Xfree 4.x my pathetic attempts at trying it, got me no-where. -- http://linux.nf -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] _________________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
