We currently run 5 low-end PCs with FreeBSD as a monitoring station. Each of the machines acts as an X server to machines elsewhere running a variety of simple x apps, xterm, xload etc. The solution is very simple and works very well. However, I can't help but think that one machine could quite adequately handle all this, freeing up 4 machines to do other things. The problem being one of how do you connect 5 monitors to one machine, and then subsequently how does X deal with this? Can FreeBSD handle multiple graphics cards? Thanks, alex....
