Sebastian,

The i810 driver serves a whole family of Intel chips.  Knowing which 
chip of the family is in your laptop may help.  Please post the output 
of 'lspci | grep -i vga'. 

Also, there may be errors in your Xorg.0.log.  That is a file in the 
/var/log directory.  If there are any lines with (EE) in that file, 
please post them as well.  An easy way to find lines like that would be 
the command 'cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log | grep \(EE\)'.  If your Xorg.0.log 
file contains any errors, please post it as well.

The file that I had posted should have resulted in a single desktop that 
stretched across two monitors, so getting the same image in both 
monitors may indicate a problem.
