nVidia 6600qt Xinerama dual monitor problem

[kk]

Hello everybody,

I'm new, and I'm experiencing a H-U-G-E problem with my dual monitor config.
All I can get with Xinerama is a stretched monitor, not exactly what I wanted..., I have nvidia driver with rendering working. I have already added the flag "Xinerama" and recompiled the entire KDE environment, but still Xinerama's not working. Anybody has a ready-to-go solution to that? Thanks a lot

Try using Twinview I think its nVidia's take on Xinerama or w/e. Check Gentoo Wiki for a Tutorial on Dual-Monitors.

By the way, here is by xorg.conf. Thanks again.
