I am running Red Hat 6.1 and would like to configure it to use 
multiple display devices.  I am looking to drive 3-5 different display 
monitors that will allow me to move and share programs between them.  
I have looked around and cannot find any support for multiple 
monitors.  If anyone has achieved this, i would love to hear about it.

Thanks!

That's exactly what i am trying to do.  I want to have 4 different 
monitors share the same workspace. This will allow dragging 
applications between the displays and also occupy all 4 monitors with 
one application.

It's possible with Unix and Windows 2000 - why not Linux?
