HP HP-UX User Manual

 

 
____________________________________________________________________________________ 
Note:  Different monitor resolutions are not supported with the multi-display configurations unless 
stated otherwise in the table below. 
____________________________________________________________________________________ 

 
The list of supported multi-display configurations is rather large, and it changes whenever a new 
graphics device is introduced. Thus, if you are considering a Single Logical Screen or any other multi-
display configuration, we recommend consulting your HP Sales Representative and inquiring whether 
the configuration you have in mind is indeed supported.  
 
There are general guidelines, however. For example:  

•  Multi-display configurations may be limited by available power. Depending on the capacity of 

your computer's power supply, and the power demands of the combination of graphics cards you 
are considering, there may or may not be enough power to operate them all.  

•  Single Logical Screen configurations must use identical graphics devices (see the next section).  

 
SLS is a mechanism for treating homogeneous multi-display configurations as a single "logical" screen. 
This allows the moving/spanning of windows across multiple physical monitors. The word 
"homogeneous" is included because SLS only works if the graphics devices included in the SLS 
Configuration are of the same type.
