Talk:Using multiple monitors

From LQWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

This page should probably be moved to something called 'multiple monitors' or 'multi-head'. Since Xinerama is what it's called only in the open source xfree86 drivers, and newbies won't know what it is.

I've added a comment behind the link on the hardware page with the aliases. Do you think this suffices?

No, I really think this should be moved to a general page about all the different 'multihead' configurations. Where each of them is explained. This also because the term Xinerama may slowly fade away now, since some xfree86 drivers also implement the new MergedFB method.

I hope it's now a bit more clear, trying to bring a bit of order in all the confusing names :)


Excellent job! I guess this is the power of the wiki. Whomever knows most about it, puts the info there. This has become an excellent page now. :-)
