Luca,
The project you describe is much harder than is reasonable for a single person
on a tight budget and has some problems you might not recognize. Driving
multiple monitors off of one video in a way that is usable isn't as simple as
rapidly switching the signal lines. I believe it takes at

Hi all: I'm having some trouble getting my apple cinema displays to
run properly. I have two of them, a 23" one (DVI0) and a 30" one
(DVI1). here's the output from xrandr:
Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 3200 x 1200, maximum 4480 x 1600
VGA1 disconnected
DVI0 connected 1920x1200+0+0 495m

This saves an extra loop from firing off when there's a non-local socket among
the connections. (Since all _IceTransLocal does is check if the socket is a
UNIX type.)

True even without drm. I filed a bugreport regarding this, but mine is
probably just ignored because I don't use Linux.

This may not be helpful at the moment, but should you decide that you
need to go down the multiple displays route eventually, there exist screen
cards that do 4 VGA ports on the one card. Unfortunately the only one I know
of requires PCI Express, but I'm fairly sure there are others.
