> My Sparc has two TGX card and two 20in screen. I want to use both in one

Haven't received a lot of answers (only one...) and one me too...

Here is the only answer: (I haven't tried it, what I want is a free
solution).
> Hi Simon-Bernard,

> I don't know how to use XINERAMA, but you might take a look at
> http://www.x-software.com/Software/Xbigx/info.english.html
> They offer a middlewaresoftware which allows the user to use multiple displays

> which allows to use multiple xservers (on different machines) to use as one
> logical display !!!
