Abstract:
A method and system for displaying graphics on a display of a second module remotely connected with a first module via a data communications medium. A first controller interfaces between a first graphics processor and the first module. A second controller interfaces between a second graphics processor and the first module via the data communications medium and the first controller. The first controller duplicates data returned to the first graphics processor by the first module in response to data requests, and transmits the duplicated data to the second controller. The second controller intercepts data requests by the second graphics processor to the first module, correlates the intercepted requests with the duplicated data received from the first controller and transmits the duplicated data to the second graphics processor based on this correlation. The second graphics processor uses the received duplicated data to generate graphics for display at the second module.
