TwinView only works with two monitors and only with a single video card. The OP is using three monitors and two video cards so TwinView is not an option. I have a dual monitor single card nvidia setup that I currently use with xinerama since TwinView does not support per-monitor LUTs (IE. TwinView is not suitable for color critical work) and I have not noticed any performance issues with xinerama vs. TwinView. What is missing with xinerama is the ability to dynamically resize the displays. > > On 09/11/09 11:19 AM, Sascha wrote: > > Hello List! > > > > I currently use a triple-head setup with 2 nvidia-cards: > > > > - onboard nvidia 7xxx > > - pci-e nvidia 7xxx dual-head > > - Athlon X2 2.7GHz > > - 3 Screens at 1200x1600 (rotated. the rotation does not decrease the > > performance significantly) > > - Ubuntu Karmic, NVIDIA driver > > > > The performance (just 2D desktop performance, no 3D or compiz) is ok, > > but every time i use my Laptops (which are single-screen naturally) i > > wish my Desktop performance were that great. > > The Xinerama setup is just not that snappy. > > There is a small lag with everything.
