Hi David, <div><br></div><div>I have heard that GTK 590 supports up to three monitors. </div><div><br></div><div><a href="http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-590/features">http://www.geforce.com/hardware/desktop-gpus/geforce-gtx-590/features</a></div>
<div><br></div><div>There is an alternative via X extensions (with second GPU), it seemed to work for us couple of years ago but I am not sure the current status of it. </div><div><br></div><div>Thanks,</div><div><br><br>

Software: Ubuntu 12.04.1 running Xfce4<br>
Hardware: Microway 1U rack, 1 x NVidia Quadro 5000, 1 x Tesla C2050
(access to more teslas), 3 x Dells S500 projectors, 1 x totally
awesome custom built immersive screen :)<br>
<br>
<b>Goal:</b> Maximize ParaView across all three monitors for
seamless integration.<br>
<br>
<b>Problem:</b> the Quadro 5000 supports only 2 monitors which means
we need a second GPU. Second GPU means second X screen and, as far
as I know, a window can not be maximized across two X screens.<br>
<br>
<b>Help:</b> What are my options for maximizing ParaView across all
three monitors?<br>
<br>
<b>Known solutions:</b> The only solution I've found so far is to
use an AMD card. Two problems with that: 1) the driver setup is
supposed to be a real PITA, 2) we don't have a FirePro sitting
around to try out, so that would mean buying one.<br>
<br>
I'm open to changing up the software stack if you know of something
that will work.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
David Zemon<br>
