Hi Daniel!
I had almost the same problem. No dual monitor support using Xorg. I
would call myself a linux noob, but I solved my problem! I have a
Xinerama display, i.e. one wide screen over two monitors, windows and
cursor can be dragged to the other display. My xorg.conf is a mixture
of the XF86Config file of my old Suse 8.2 System, some configurations
my father did on his Computer and some of my own. It actually works.
Here's my xorg.conf:

I hope this will help a bit. Fine tuning will be necessary. :? Good
