There's a program called MaxiVista which lets you use any computer connected to your network as a second monitor.

However, it's only for XP/Vista/etc... But does anyone know of one that will work with Linux and XP together?

Is this (http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/) what you're looking for?

Thank you! I'll read up about it.

EDIT: Actually that's not really what I was looking for... I wasn't looking for something to let you control two computers at once, I was looking for something to allow you to use a second computer as a second monitor, like MaxiVista does.

Bump... sorry again. LOL but I'm having problems with this too... I can connect a Windows comp to a Linux server but I can't connect a linux comp to a Windows server...

I've never actually used that program. I just ran across it a couple months ago by accident, and thought it sounded like what you were asking for.

No worries, I got it fixed. :) Thanks though.
