Sweet. Will it compatible with Linux?

[heretic9]

Nope. Or should I say very doubtful. Ars technica did a review on the dualhead2go a while back and it didn't work with any OS that doesn't come from redmond which kinda sucks cause I hate messing with twinview or xinerama. I doubt matrox have changed their stance since releasing dualhead2go.

How many pointless threads does that make now?

I could use one of those at the office.

I am using a TripleHead2Go in Ubuntu right now. 3840x1024 is pretty nice. As neat side effect, I can share the 3 monitors between multiple computers with a KVM. Only needed to edit my xorg.conf with advice from OpenSceneGraph. The important bit is the modeline:

Modeline "3840x1024" 301.37  3840 3920 4224 4752 1024 1027 1030 1057

Though it would be much better if Matrox would release a Linux app to set this up for you.

My only problem with it now is that I haven't figured out how to implement Xinerama features like maximizing to a single display instead of the whole desktop.

SWEET so it can actually work on ubuntu !!! So... is it worth the purchase? I would love to run ET:QW on it !!!!
