4.5 Starting the X Server in Multi-Screen
Mode
The XF86Config file determines whether the X server starts up
in single-screen mode or multi-screen mode. Once the
XF86Config file is set up, the procedure for starting the X
server (whether in single-screen or multi-screen mode) will be
the same.
To start the X server on multiple instances of the same type of
card in multi-screen mode, changes need to be made to the
ServerLayout, Device and Screen sections. The following
example shows how to start X on two Raptor DL-Lite cards.
The ServerLayout section needs to be modified as shown.

The Device and the Screen sections in the config file need
to be copied and modified. Each Raptor card has its own
Device and Screen section. Each of the Device and Screen
sections has a unique Identifier field. The Screen section
of a given Raptor card has the Device field set to the
Identifier of the corresponding Device section. In the
example below we use two Raptor DL-Lite cards.
