split screen multiplayer spread out over multiple monitors?

Hi All,

I can play supertuxkart in split screen multiplayer. This works file, Supertuxkart draws on the main monitor, and each player gets a quarter of the monitor with their own view of the game. My PC has 3 monitors, so I can use xrandr to mirror the pixels to 3 monitors:
{l Code}: {l Select All Code}
 monitor 0     monitor 1      monitor 2
+---- +-----+  +---- +-----+  +---- +-----+ 
| P1  | P2  |  | P1  | P2  |  | P1  | P2  |
+---- +-----+  +---- +-----+  +---- +-----+ 
| P3  | map |  | P3  | map |  | P3  | map | 
+-----+-----+  +---- +-----+  +---- +-----+ 


It would be nice if the view of the game for each player is drawn on their own monitor:
{l Code}: {l Select All Code}
 monitor 0     monitor 1      monitor 2
+-----------+  +-----------+  +-----------+
|           |  |           |  |           |   
| Player 1  |  | Player 2  |  | Player 3  | 
|           |  |           |  |           |   
+-----------+  +-----------+  +-----------+ 


Is this possible?
