Hello Graig,

Thanks for the info.
With 12 MB of Video memory it should just be possible to have 2 monitors running with 1600x1200 on 24 bits. If uttsc supports a setting of -g3200x1200 and we use a 2FS we are in business! Or am I wrong? This is interesting news. I didn't realized the MS RDP client limitations only apply to the MS RDP client. I thought it was a protocol limitation. So this is another example of Sun Ray /SRC superiority over pc based thinclients running Windows OSes. Interesting marketing stuff ;-).

Thank you very much,

Ivar

Dual monitor support in RDP6 just means 1 single screen spread across multiple heads (i.e. Xinerama). You have to give the RDP 6 client the "/span" option from the command line to enable it. With Sun Ray you've had this functionality for years (with SRC, RDesktop, etc), the only limitation is on the RDP Server side which limits you to about 12 MB of Video memory (which is actually four more than ICA). Prior the newly release RDP 6.0 client, the MS RDP client could only do a maximum of 1600x1200.

There is no RDP solution that can detect you are running multiple monitors and treat each on separately, like a dual headed graphics card with local drivers would on a PC.

Hello Sangeeta,

I can imagine that a lot of the RDP 6.0 features are hard to implement but one feature we would really like is Dual Monitor support. Since the Sun Ray 2 FS has Dual monitor capabilities we would appreciate any effort to put this into the next release.
