Hi all,
Finally My problem is solved. I changed the file a bit(Added the
offset in the MetaModes and also removed the Clone settings from the
TwinViewOrientation). you can see the latest working config file at the
same address:
http://students.iiit.net/~vardhman/xfree86TwinView/XF86Config
http://students.iiit.net/~vardhman/xfree86TwinView/XFree86.0.log
Thank you all for the responses some of you gave.
