all screens are on the same system?

Beautiful! I'm on the verge of adding a third monitor to my desktop PC. WHat kind of video card(s) are you using?

Soultrader said...

the electronic clock is pants - the analogue onbe much better - both are radio clocks

middle 3 screens are on the shuttle and the outer 2 are on the old pc system - both have a program called synergy running which means that once booted i can use just one keyboard and mouse between them seamlessly - angie introduced me to synergy and its brill.

Video card is a matrox millenium triple output card on the shuttle and an old double output on the pc.

Duckfu - dont be, it's a buggar to take to the beach!!

Oooooh thats nice :) How did you set synergy up to know the outer screens are from a different PC to the inner ones?

awesome setup!!! is that a shuttle xpc?

Soultrader said...

yes, its a shuttle xpc.

graham - took a bit of work - the outer screens are actually backwards on the old pc - ie on the right hand screen you go further right to get to the left screen - then i simply told synergy that the pc named 'office' was on the right AND the left and told office synergy that the pc called 'triple' was on the right and left also - therefore i can mouse track all the way across left to right in a continuous loop.

really cool eh :)

also installed a good UPS and suprised that 3 monitors, the shuttle and the router only uses 45% of the available power from the ups.
