I have 2 LCD's that I can connect to my laptop. Is it possible to have 1 show my Windows apps and the other to show my Unix stuff (through Exceed)?

I think I've seen someone at work have this setup - where he'd scroll to the end of one screen and his cursor would jump to the other. Anyone know how to do this? I guess I'd need some kind of KVM switch?

Thanks!

Bah, couldn't the thread get moved after I write the post? :p

After a quick Google of Exceed, it's just a regular Windows X server, right? You should just be able to maximize it on one monitor and let your Windows OS do the rest.

Yes, Exceed is just a Windows app allowing me to log into a Unix terminal.

Hmm, thanks ... I'd still need some kind of KVM switch I think. My laptop only has 1 CRT port.
