I've used conventional DX (currently 4.2) with tiled displays in several
configurations with reasonable success running on RedHat Linux/XFree86, but
one machine:
1. dual display graphics card on one machine (e.g., nVidia or ATI cards)
using OpenGL rendering
2. tri-panel display with three graphics cards using Xinerama with
Mesa/OpenGL rendering (hardware OpenGL rendering is not supported) or
software rendering, but it is relatively slow
3. high-resolution single panel (3840x2400), which is driven by a dual
display DVI graphics card
As to using DX with tiled displays and multiple machines, there is an
excellent example in the DeepView project at IBM Research
(http://www.research.ibm.com/deepview), which uses Chromium.

Subject: [opendx-users] OpenDX in a tiled display wall
I wish to use OpenDX to present scientific visualization in a tiled
display wall. This display is made with 4 projectors connected to 4
computers controled by a master. Does anybody has used OpenDX in a
Tiled Display Wall (or similar enviroment) before? Which is the best
software configuration (opendx-wiregl or opendx-chrome or other
stuff?)?. I would appreciate any suggestion.
Thank you for your time
Kind regards
Xavier
