B.12 Running Multiple Monitors in the SunView Environment
The
sunview
program runs on either a monochrome or color screen. Each
monitor on a machine with multiple monitors may have a separate SunView
environment running. The keyboard and mouse input devices can be shared
between the screens. Using
adjacentscreens
command, you can set up the
pointer to slide from one screen to another.
Two monitors are assumed to be attached to the system. To set up the SunView
environment on two monitors:
1. Invoke
sunview
on the first display as you normally would. This starts an
instance of the SunView environment on the default frame buffer
(
/dev/fb
). For Example:
2. Enter the following command to verify that a device file already exists for
the desired frame buffer:
example% sunview -d /dev/cgsix1 &
example% adjacentscreens /dev/fb -l /dev/cgsix1
