how about getting a laptop with a good amount of video memory(I don't know whats standard these days, my T20 has 8MB i think) in combo with Accelerated X LX : http://www.xinside.com/Pages/LX/LX%20ProductPage.html price is $149 and you get(in general) top notch drivers, good quality software. it supports running the LCD and an external monitor at the same time on some laptops. demo is freely available. They mention a "Zoom" mode which sounds like some sort of display spanning, but I have never heard of the term, reccomend you ask them if your interested. It might work more transparently too, not sure. might be simpler and or less costly then a docking station that has pci slots with a pci video card in it. Xinside knocks Xfree86 every chance they get thats the only problem I have with them. It's annoying at best for me, but their software is good, I've been using it off and on since 1996 on Linux, Solaris/x86 and FreeBSD. I haven't tried the LX version of accelerated X only the standard version and OpenGL version(which is not compadible with debian) nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
