[VirtualGL-Users] Configuring VirtualGL with Multiple Graphics cards in one Machine

[Antony C. <ant...@cl...>]

Hi all,

I am about to get a machine with two Quadro FX5800 cards in it that I
want to configure to allow multiple users to visualise their data. I
have a working testing box setup with a single graphics card configured
using TurboVNC and VirtualGL 2.1.4 and it is amazing. How much more
complicated would a multiple graphics card install be? What extra steps
would I have to go through? There does not appear to be much on this in
the documentation except a quick mention in the advanced configuration
settings at the bottom where it says I can use vglrun -d <display> or
the VGL_DISPLAY variable to select which X display should do the
rendering but there is nothing about how to setup the server. Is this
because it "just works" or are there some more things I have to do to
make it work?

thanks for your time

Antony
