Maxivista Pseudo Display Adapter


-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Has anyone had any experience using Cygwin X with the Maxivista product?

The URL for the product is http://www.maxivista.com/ and it works by
adding in a display driver which extends the PC to have a further
monitor, provided by a second PC.  In other words, another PC's screen
becomes a second (or in my case, a third) monitor.  Windows then extends
the desktop to the new monitor.

My usual setup is two monitors off a single graphics card.
Startxwin.bat uses the following line to kick X off:

%RUN% XWin -multiwindow -clipboard -silent-dup-error -multiplemonitors

This works fine with the two normal monitors.  However, if the third,
Maxivista monitor is activated, an xterm on either of the original
monitors freezes.  Input is accepted but I see no output in the xterm
window until I either move it to the third monitor or disable that monitor.

Any suggestions or pointers would be gratefully received.

Thanks,
Cliff.
