Figure 2.14: Adjusting the Image Geometry
The layout of a multihead environment describes the arrangement of and
the relationship between the individual screens. By default, SaX2 config-
ures a standard layout that follows the sequence of the detected graphics
cards, arranging all screens in a row from left to right. In the ‘Layout’ dia-
log of the multihead tool, determine the way the monitors are arranged by
using the mouse to move the screen symbols in the grid. After completing
the layout dialog, verify the new configuration by clicking ‘Test’.
Linux currently does not offer 3D support for Xinerama multihead environ-
ments. In this case, SaX2 deactivates the 3D support.
