xorg.conf with dualscreen
 
Maybe there is something wrong with the search function because i didn't find anything.

OK, I'm using ARCH with radeon 9600 (fglrx driver)
I have managed to get both screens showing one desktop each (Where does it read the second desktops settings? They are default for me)

I want to have a xinerama desktop, where i can drag apps between the screens, but when trying to make this work in the xorg.conf the best i managed to get was that both screens showed exactly the same exept the mouse cursor, If i right-clicked the right screen I got a menu on both, but if i right-clicked the left screen I got no menu this made me think that there was a second part of the desktop but the left screen was showing the wrong part.
Anyone who has had this problem and knows how to solve it?
I use X Window System Version 6.8.2 and Fluxbox 0.1.14

-edit-
Also my tft screen blinks black (2 secs black) sometimes after I changed to the fglrx drivers.

What does your xorg.conf look like, also what did you search for, their are probably 700 posts on this subject in the forum.

my search was 'dualscreen' and 'xorg dualscreen'


The xorg config had alot of comments so I removed most of them
I also uploaded the full one to http://www.webbportalen.com/firedance/xorg.conf.txt
