Trouble running some games and software with xinerama (Nvidia)


Hi, all. I've been having issues running certain games and some software while having xinerama enabled on my three monitors. I've been trying to use ckb-next (third party keyboard and mouse driver for my Corsair peripherals) and play The Talos Principle. When I enabled xinerama by saving X config to my Xorg.conf and reboot, ckb won't start and Talos closes on launch.

Doing a bit of investigating, trying to launch ckb-next results in this error:
Quote:
QObject::startTimer: Timers cannot have negative intervals
Segmentation fault (core dumped)
And when trying to access the Display manager, I get this:
Quote:
Unable to query the version of the RandR extension being used
Some lesser examples of games not working are Team Fortress 2 having some trouble displaying at 5760x1080 (game only fills 800x600 in the top left of the window), Counter-Strike:GO has oversized menus.
Any ideas on what I could do to fix these problems?

Xrandr is crap for dual video card setups. Especially with nvidia. Wine the same.
