3.4.4 Configuring a distributed system with multiple logical screens
Configuring a distributed system with multiple logical screens is largely similar to
configuring a distributed system without multiple logical screens. See section
configuration
additional part for configuring multiple logical screens.
More information concerning multiple logical screens can be found in the sections
6.2.6 Advanced Argus
configuration. The configuration runs mostly along the X.11 configuration and the configuration
of a distributed system.
Mode of multiple logical screens
Select the multiple logical screens mode. If you select separate mode you are also prompted to indicate whether
you want cursor wrap or not (Please see the keyword NoCursorWrap in section
tion).
Configuring the Multiple Logical Screen X Server

Please enter the MLS mode
Switching on the cursor wrap around feature (yes/no)? [no]: no
Subnet and rendering machines
Next the Sub-net and the rendering machines are configured. Please see section
system. The number of rendering machines (graphic engines) is asked. For each rendering machine the IP address
and the arrangement must be specified. The position of the machine is only asked, if you configure continuous
mode. Furthermore the type of the graphic card must be indicated and the depth resolution must be assigned.
