Well, this worked fine in Mandrake - I'm currently running Debian sid/Mepis. I have twinview enabled and working, second monitor RightOf. Thing is, when I maximize a window it covers both screens, but I want it to cover only one. The settings are copied from Mandrake, but then Mandrake uses xorg and Debian XFree - could that be the cause? "Metamodes" is "1280x1024,800x600@800x600; 1280,1024" It doesnt do any difference changing this, or excluding the '@800x600' I found one section in the README concerning this, it says basically nVidias Xinerama-extension must be used - and it is.
