[Paraview] Maximize ParaView across 3 monitors; NVIDIA

[David Zemon]

Software: Ubuntu 12.04.1 running Xfce4
Hardware: Microway 1U rack, 1 x NVidia Quadro 5000, 1 x Tesla C2050 
(access to more teslas), 3 x Dells S500 projectors, 1 x totally awesome 
custom built immersive screen :)

*Goal:* Maximize ParaView across all three monitors for seamless 
integration.

*Problem:* the Quadro 5000 supports only 2 monitors which means we need 
a second GPU. Second GPU means second X screen and, as far as I know, a 
window can not be maximized across two X screens.

*Help:* What are my options for maximizing ParaView across all three 
monitors?

*Known solutions:* The only solution I've found so far is to use an AMD 
card. Two problems with that: 1) the driver setup is supposed to be a 
real PITA, 2) we don't have a FirePro sitting around to try out, so that 
would mean buying one.

I'm open to changing up the software stack if you know of something that 
will work.

Thanks,
David Zemon
