     4  <title>Error When Removing a Monitor</title>

    66  <body>
    7     <p><userinput>VBoxDRMClient</userinput> is not able to handle
    8           arbitrary guest monitor topologies. Specifically, disabling a
    9           guest monitor that is not the last one invalidates the monitor
    10           topology due to limitations in the
    11           <codeph>vmwgfx.ko</codeph> Linux kernel module. For example,
    12           when the guest is configured to have four monitors it is not
    13           recommended to disable the second or third monitor.
