For anyone who is interested, I have modified the Sun device dependent portion
of the server to support up to three CG2 frame buffers.  I have tried all
the client software that comes with the X11R3 distribution, and they all work.

Anyone who is interested in having a copy, send me e-mail and I will send you
the patches.  If many people are interested, I will submit it to expo.

Of all the window managers that I have, (wm, awm, uwm, twm, gwm) only wm and
gwm will handle the multiple screens.  I have heard that twm will support
multiple screens for R4.  Can anyone confirm this?  Can I get my hands on a
the version of twm that does support multiple screens?  Can anyone confirm that
Motif's window manager supports multiple screens?

Benson, you are so mercifully devoid of the ravages of intelligence.
