Question Stretched display only in GDM??


Hello. When I start my computer and GDM loads, the login window stretches across both my monitors like i want it to. However, when I login as a user or as root, it switches back to clone view. How do I make it so that it stays in stretch mode. I have and ATI 9800pro using the fglrx driver. I am using the 64bit version of Gentoo also. Any help would be greatly appreciated.Here is my xorg.conf
