you could share the screen on one ray with x11vnc and display its contents on another (even many) ray(s) with vncviewer.
it would be possible to create a clone-ray-kiosk-mode (vncviewer in fullscreen connecting to a primary vnc server). neither the alp protocol, nor the sunray firmware supports cloning, as of my knowledge. above method is SW only and requires (at least) 2 rays. below method using a VGA splitter is HW only (not sure about input devices), really cheap and simple. though a FW and/or ALP based clone mode would be a very nice addon (but i think both very hard to implement). niki ----- Ursprüngliche Nachricht ----- Von: Fuerle, Thomas Gesendet: 11.05.11 19:33 Uhr An: SunRay-Users mailing list Betreff: Re: [SunRay-Users] How to get dual monitors displaying same image (clone display) [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED] Good question, I found no answer to that and plugged in a 20 € VGA splitter, which was the simple "physical" approach and quite cheap. I would be interesting how to do that on a Sun Ray 3 plus with software, but I gave up ... This is what I used http://www.digitus.info/de/produkte/datacom/video-splitter/video-splitter-2-port/vga/vga-splitter-300mhz-dc-41100/, but these days you would go to a DVI splitter I guess. I needed a VGA splitter, because in the early days of this setup, it was not a sun ray as the source, but a old laptop, so both devices had to work. regards, thomas -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Im Auftrag von Hall, John L ( SCIS ) Gesendet: Dienstag, 03.

Am I missing the obvious? How do I get a single sunray device with dual monitors to display the same output on both monitors. EG: each monitor resolution 1680x1050 - two identical monitors connected, showing the same (cloned) output. I have tried all the combinations of utxconfig I can think of. I've tried various searches in Google and the sun-ray mailing list archive. Sunray server 5.1.2 (v4.2 plus latest patches). Host OS: Solaris 10 Sparc, latest recommended patches. Client: Sunray2FS.
