I am trying to setup 3 and I am having major issues. I can get the two working just fine, but I am having issues getting the third radeon HD 6570 card to work for the other one or two. Could you post a link to your xorg file or some sort of blog tutorial? Much appreciate. Thanks.
@emiel1976ep Thanks! Still using this setup although one of the monitors took a dump a few months ago. I have a little monitor in its place until I get around to fixing it.
@vvtheduckvv I wanted 2 screens and I have it now on my P4 but that are 2 5" but I want now 4 screesn that are bigger and like you have and maybe 6 screens.
I must wait till I have a new pc to do that.
Is it now easier toe do with the newer Linux versions or is Xorg still causing problems?
How did you rotate just the top LCDs? i tried to rotate a single monitor of a dual LCD setup and found out that both monitors need to have the rotation with nvidia twinview.
@draftube I can, where would you like me to? Its rather lengthy. Rotation does indeed flip the whole twinview portal, I flipped the two top monitors which are on the same card, so I was OK with that.
With xserver-xgl you can actually get a fully 3d desktop running on multiple video cards. I am running a tripple monitor setup (15.7 mp) but its actually four as far as the computer is concerned as one monitor is running off two dual-link DVI connections (which is getting converted to four single link via the use of hardware):

So you get the multiple video card/2+ monitor setup as well as full effects/great 2d (well really 3d) performance.
@77toyota New channel devoted to my motorcycle projects! DuckmanCycles! The first video will be going up in the next 24 hours... it'll be a CR500 update of course!
@goldnole75 The hardware setup is easy, my motherboard has dual PCI-E slots... just stuff a card in each one, then connect a monitor to each of the outputs! The monitors are all hanging from a 4-monitor mount which is screwed into the wall behind my desk. The desk is glass so it would have been too heavy to freely stand on the desk. But hte monitors are hinged and swing back and forth, or can go forwards and back and swivel around upside down if I so wish. The mount is nice!
@PGHMEDIA I guess it could be, but how much porn do you *NEED* at once? I guess you can watch porn on one monitor while still getting work done on the other 3, lol!
That's awesome I would love to have something like that but I'm lucky just to be able to turn this thing on lol I have my daughters computer sitting in the closet not set up yet after our move in late April lol thumbs up -Jason
@2024JayZ I really built this only to show up a friend of mine. He had 3x17" screens, so I went 2x19" then he went 2x20" so I went 4x22". After this time he quit playing the outdo me game, lol!
@rutgerjaap Actually, it runs better on fullscreen, but across all screens with Xinerama its slow, yes. Without Xinerama it runs great! :-D

Do you still have issues w/ the 3d effects not working? what does your xorg.conf and xineramainfo look like for this?

@theooze1
my comment got submitted twice - not sure why but it wasn't spam.
do you have the hacked xcinerama file? also - did you have 3d effects (compiz) working ?
i have a quad monitor setup working pretty well, except for xcinerma + compiz.
