my reading of the manpage tells me that it shows you the X Screens as
opposed to the monitors. And it looks like you can set which "outputs"

Thanks for the response.
So obviously, I'm clueless about how to get dual-head working now that
xinerama appears to be unusable (with the "i810/intel" driver update
which breaks it). Anyone have any pointers to documentation that might
