xorg wacom twinview question


Fedora4, Wacom, Dual monitor with Nvidia card & Driver.
I have a desktop spanning horizontally over two monitors using twinview.
The cursor movement on my wacom tablet seems somehow constrained and won't cover the whole with of both monitors.
The area covered by the wacom seems to depend on the last placement of the cursor with a mouse.
On Xorg.conf I have the wacom card configured as "absolute" and yet the movement seems as if was on relative mode. I tried playing with the :twinview" options on the wacom section but nothing seems to make a difference.

Any ideas on how to make this go right?

here are pertaining entries on the xorg.conf file:

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "stylus"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event0"
Option "Type" "stylus"
Option "Mode" "Absolute"
Option "Twinview" "horizontal"
EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "eraser"

EndSection

Section "InputDevice"
Driver "wacom"
Identifier "cursor"
Option "Device" "/dev/input/event0"
