Hi!

It's just few days I got chance to work on Onyx2. I see there are two
mouse and keyboard inputs at back of the Onyx2 and also for two
moniters. I can guess how two use two monitors (using video format
compiler), but I don't know how convert Onyx2 into two workstations.

Secondly, /usr/gfx/gfxinfo says: Managed (":0.0") 1280x1024
Does this mean I can have maximum of this resolution. I tried with
video format compiler, it says can't manage xxx area. Does this depend
on video ram I have. It is 4MB external BEF ram, 32bit path. How can I
upgrade it.

The picture on Onyx2 looks slightly dull compaired to O2s, no matter
what contrast-brightness you change. Is gamma of the system is wrong.
Currently it is 1.7, same as all O2s. The /usr/sbin/gamma manual says
it is normaly 2.4 How do I find out gamma of monitor, gamcal is
useless.

Thanks a lot

Regards
Sunil
