Hi,

I am using the Vega (Paradigm) API and we are having a little problem.

We are trying to start windows on both graphics pipes on our Onyx. Vega
will put both windows on the pipe that you are currently running the
executable.

Vega uses pfQuerySys(PFQSYS_NUM_SCREENS, i) to determine the number of
pipes on the machine before it will throw a window on the other pipe.

pfQuerySys(PFQSYS_NUM_SCREENS, i) is returning 1 even though our onyx
has 2 IR pipes.

Has anyone seen this problem before?

Does anyone have some performer code that will open multiple windows on
a multipipe machine that I could try on our machine?

We have an onyx with the following:

        IRIX 6.2
        Performer 2.2
        2 Infinite Reality Pipes with 2RMs per pipe
         
Thanks in advance,

Brian Dotson
