Re:[PLUG] A few terminals?


You want to buy a box called

VGA MultiplierDisplays,
Displays Multi Monitors simultaneously, I forget the stores name in Philly that
I bought it from but remember that I got there name from the compUSA store in
Franklin Mall Area.

If you want to do this with the keyboard and Mouse then look for a KVM switch at
www.rose-elec.com it will allow you to do all this in one with Linux and Unix or
$m$.

I have a standard PC running Linux. On the back it has the video 
port, keyboard port etc. I have a couple extra monitors and some 
old keyboards. Is there a way to hook up those monitors and 
keyboards as just terminals? They would local, sitting side by side 
on my table. Do I need a box for each terminal or, what I was 
hoping, is there some type of splitter device for the keyboard and 
monitor ports. If I do need a box, what is involved in setting up a 
few terminals with the spare parts I have around? I wasn't thinking 
networking with NIC cards and all but just terminals.

Tom
