Thanks for your response. Sorry, I should have been
more clear. I could probably get away with X, but I was
hoping to find a way to drive each video card and write
to them with something like a file handle and without X.
In a dream world I could use Perl to do something like:
tail -f -n 1 /var/log/messages > /dev/video1
tail -f -n 1 /var/log/xferlog > /dev/video2
tail -f -n 1 /var/log/secure > /dev/video3 | [reply] |
It sounds like you can use a regular unix "dumb terminal"
to connect to the machine and have the output sent there.
i'm not an administrator but i'd start searching for
tty/pty/getty in the manpages
