Title A photon machine with two Banshee cards
Ref. No. QNX.000009789
Category(ies) Installation, Configuration
Issue What is the procedure for setting up a photon machine with two Banshee cards?


Solution Normally, do 'trap', then edit the trap file.

Note that there are two groups of lines that contain Pg.Banshee. The first set have -I0 and pertain to the primary adapter, and the -I1 set pertain tho the secondary.

Take one line from each set by selecting the resolution and color depths you require. Then, you need to merge the two lines. Remove and comment at the end of each line(everything after the last ';').
Remove the Null.ms; from one of the lines and merge two lines such that you have something like this:
x09Null.ms;Pg.Banshee -I0 -g....;Pg.Banshee -I1 -g.....

Starting Photon at this point would give you two displays that show the top left corner of the photon "world view". To offset one of the displays, add a -o option after one of the Pg.Banshee commands.

e.g. -o1024 or -o0,768
