Hi,

Here's what I exactly did an it worked :

#download xorg-core src
sudo apt-get source xserver-xorg-core

cd xorg-server-1.9.0

#apply correction to file
sudo vi Xext/panoramiXprocs.c (and replace pWin with pDst on line 637. then <esc>:x to save and quit

#install debuild
apt-get install devscripts

#install required libs as i didn't had them
apt-get install debhelper quilt bison flex xutils-dev x11proto-bigreqs-dev x11proto-composite-dev x11proto-damage-dev x11proto-xinerama-dev x11proto-randr-dev x11proto-record-dev x11proto-render-dev x11proto-resource-dev x11proto-scrnsaver-dev x11proto-video-dev x11proto-xcmisc-dev x11proto-xf86bigfont-dev x11proto-xf86dga-dev x11proto-xf86vidmode-dev x11proto-dri2-dev libxfont-dev libxkbfile-dev libpixman-1-dev libpciaccess-dev libgcrypt-dev nettle-dev libudev-dev libselinux1-dev x11proto-xf86dri-dev x11proto-gl-dev libxmuu-dev libxrender-dev libxi-dev x11proto-dmx-dev libdmx-dev libxpm-dev libxaw7-dev libxmu-dev libxtst-dev libxres-dev libxv-dev libxinerama-dev

#build the DEB packages
debuild -us -uc -i

cd ..

#install modified xorg-core
dpkg -i xserver-xorg-core_1.9.0-0ubuntu7_amd64.deb

reboot and SHAZAM !!, finally my 3 screens are back and xinerama work
fine.

I use the ubuntu nvidia drivers (nvidia-current). no need to remove
drivers or anything.

If someone is interrested by packages, you cand find them here : http://dl.free.fr/qMumCkrLk
those are for amd64 (I have a intel core i5).

Kudos to Ochi, wor and listdata at ArchLinux for solving this
Many thanks to Steffen Reinecke for his tutorial and all other people who helped.
