I have a strange problem with my KDE setup. Xorg sends output to both of my monitors and I can move the mouse between my monitors (only one mousepointer is visable). KDE shows the same picture on both monitors but I can only click in one of them (if I try to click on the other monitor nothing happens). If I select Desktop -> Panels -> Identify in ControlCenter the small box with the namers 1 and 2 "overlap" on both monitors. Any suggestions on what could be wrong?

Regards,

Take a look at Control Center, Peripherals, Display, Multiple Monitors.

I have all the checkboxes selected under Mulitple Monitor Support.

Then the table shows:

               X Coordinate   Y Coordinate   Width   Height
Display 1            0                  0               1600   1200
Display 2      1600                  0               1600   1200

In xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
       Option      "CursorShadow" "True"
       Option      "TwinView" "True"
       Option      "TwinViewOrientation" "RightOf"
Option "MetaModes" "1600x1200,1600x1200;1280x1024,1280x1024;1024x768,1024x768;800x600,800x600"
       Option      "SecondMonitorHorzSync" "28-95"
       Option      "SecondMonitorVertSync" "50-120"
       Option      "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
       Option      "RenderAccel" "true"
       Option      "backingstore" "true"
       Option      "UseEDIDDpi" "FALSE"
       Identifier  "Card0"
       Driver      "nvidia"
       VendorName  "nVidia Corporation"
       BoardName   "Unknown Board"
       BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

My system is:
xorg-X11-7.0-r1
nvidia-kernel-1.0.8178-r3
nvidia-glx-1.0.8178-r1
KDE-3.5.2

but I've been using twin monitors since KDE-3.3.
