On the sound problem: Player 1's car sounds on the left side speaker and player 2's on the right would work well enough for some perhaps, but I was going to be asking about Jack support? I think there are Alsa to Jack workarounds, but anything I use for audio which isn't Jack aware just routes via to my tv/monitor, currently. I noticed there's Plib support. Funny how a word can bring back memories - I was thinking of connecting two PC's by their parallel ports...

Define 2 players in the control section using different controllers, then add those 2 'humans' in the race line up. Once the game has started use '(' to split the screen and PgUp/PgDown to get to each split to the desired player, 'Tab' switches between splits (selected one has a little green square in the lower right). You can change the arrangement of the splits to fit your monitor set up with '_'.
Only down side I see is that there is only 1 audio output, that of the 'selected' split. IIRC the SD 2.0 has a maximum of 4 splits and SVN has 6 - for triple monitor setups.
Simon.
PS Network play with 2 or more PCs in SVN, but still needs more work
PPS If you have a really fancy monitor setup you can hand edit the '.speeddreams-2/config/screen.xml' to make the most of it.

I've often seen video of two players racing, side by side with the full pedals and racing seat etc., but there's usually two computers providing the experience as far as I know. Would be a bit of good publicity to demonstrate such a feature. Maybe in 3.0?
I must say (again) I'm very impressed with the sim as is. I've had a lot of fun already. Thanks to all who built it, and Linus, of course - for convincing nVidia to provide a better driver.
