Spanning desktop across multiple x servers

[Nikolaj Hald Nielsen]

Hi!

I am new to this list, and searching dit not come up with anything about
this topic, but I hope I am not repeating a common question.

Is it currently possible to stretch a desktop acros multiple computers
running X? I am currently using synergy "http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/"
between my laptop and my desktop, and while this integrates mouse, keyboard
and clipboard between the machines it does not turn them into one effective
desktop.

If this is possible how is it done, and if not, how big a task would it be
to implement it?

I am a fairly profficient programmer and after the modularization of x.org,
it generally does not seem quite as daunting a project to start hacking away
at. So if it is not a multi year task I might be willing to try as time
permits.


For reference, I am the author of
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mouse-gestures/ which at the moment is my
main free-time coding project.


Cheers

Nikolaj Nielsen
