1 Anybody know if this is possible? I have a single-head graphics card
2 capable of doing 2048x1536. I want to start X with a virtual desktop
3 of 2048x768, make my ViewPort be the left half of said desktop, start
4 x11vnc using the "-clip" option so that it only shows the right half of
5 said desktop, and then use an old beater laptop to act as a view-only
6 VNC client that connects to the x11vnc instance. I think it will work,
7 my only question is is there a way to prevent the ViewPort from moving
8 around in X as you move the mouse?
