639.0. "Support for two mice, two keyboards, and two monitors - but one CPU" by TRILGY::FLONNOY (DTN 521-6671 - WRO1-2/D30) Wed Apr 19 1989 17:12

Has there been a note on support for a VAXstation (Q-bus) with two video boards
and mice/keyboards/monitors? I thought I read something in the release notes for
VMS V5.1 about that. But I can't find any information on it. I'd like to have a 
this work on VMS-DECwindows. Any pointers to info would be appreciated!

639.1	Try decw$server_screens symbol	STAR::BMATTHEWS		`Wed Apr 19 1989 17:58`	9
	I haven't tried it but to start up the software on the second gpx screen of a 2 gpx system with seperate keyboard and mouse then you need to use a decw$private_server_setup.com for the second screen with the line $ decw$server_screens == "GAB0" to force the system to start up on the second screen. You might run into licensing problems because all of our workstations are single user. Bill
