Dont want to discuss any how to's here in Community Cafe, but I was wondering if anyone ran 3 monitors or more off one box here? Also if you did do you run compiz. If you do know any how to links please post so we can talk tech stuff there.

Cheers,
Exo

Three monitors here (1920*1200, 1600*1200, 1280*1024), but I use awesome-dm, no compiz.

The Nvidia config GUI may help you also.


sudo apt-get install nvidia-settings

Xinerama is shot in Nvidia.
I gave up on 3 monitors because of spontaneous rebooting.
Now I just use 3 monitors and 2 computers.
