NO. Some installations have a problem detecting the number of “heads” per video adapter. Userful Multiplier includes a tool to fix the problem. • login as the root user. • open a terminal console • run /opt/userful/bin/userful-config-display. You will be prompted to type the number of heads for each card. • reboot the computer. If this does not happen automatically, type shutdown -h now. You will have to physically start the computer again. You can also force Userful Multiplier to reassign monitors/keyboards/mouse sessions. Click “start” and choose “Additional Applications” and then open “Userful”. In the Userful window, click “Reset all Keyboards”. This will reset all the sessions and you should then be ready to go. Refer to the Userful Multiplier Wiki for additional support issues. Omni is Userful’s global Userful Multiplier distributor for SUSE Linux Enterprise Desktop deployments.
