Hi,

I have two Samsung 971p monitors plugged via two DVI ports in xinerama mode. 
They work best for me. If you want to tune them under linux you can use 
ddccontrol [1], which is also in portage (note: 971p seem to be only in the 
latest ddc database, so if you'll not find this model there - try to unmask 
packages related to the ddccontrol)

good luck
