H Joachim and David,

Thank you for answering. I tried to apply an Image AND Gradient 
background and it was not correctly split over the different screens. I 
think it is cave mode actually. I have tested tile mode but the display 
is not well ordered. I tried to correct it with mpirun (-tdx=2, -tdy=4) 
but I may have missed something in the command line.

Here is my pvx file :
