Hello Miles,

I find the solution for multiterminal on google and I found this page (in
portoghese) http://www.c3sl.ufpr.br/multiterminal/casos.php and
http://www.c3sl.ufpr.br/multiterminal/howto-pt.php for use with 4 keyboards, 4
mouses and 4 monitors. 

They use this patch for kernel (http://startx.times.lv/), this X config
(http://www.c3sl.ufpr.br/multiterminal/XF86Config-4) and this documents:
http://linuxconsole.sourceforge.net/
http://tldp.org/HOWTO/XFree-Local-multi-user-HOWTO/index.html
http://startx.times.lv/index.html


Good hacking.

Marco Sinhoreli
