Do you by any chance know how to set up xorg.conf to handle HDMI instead of regular monitor cable?

After dist-upgrading to intrepid, my X was having some troubles, I had previously been running extended screen with different resolutions, but no, no matter how many times I tell the display-properties thing to lign up the displays, it keeps making them clone-mode, even if the clone mode checkbox is not checked, anyone else having this problem?

Sure, I'll post it here. Send me your email in case you want it as a text file. So this is my xorg.conf file for the Eee PC. This makes connecting a beamer/monitor working perfectly:

# xorg.conf (X.Org X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool, using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the xorg.conf manual page.
# (Type "man xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically updated
# again, run the following command:
# sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg

i think this may be the answer to solve my problem. could i possibly take a look at your xorg.conf for your desktop with dual monitors?

Yes, you can patch libmesa, but still it would limit you to 4096x4096 which should be fine for most dual screen setups. Probably this will be included in Intrepid.

Two additional things:

* if you have an Intel 965 video, you can patch the video driver and libmesa to get Compiz on screens larger than 2048x2048

* compiz often becomes hopelessly confused after you play with xrandr, so if something seems weird, the first thing to try is Alt-F2, compiz --replace, Enter. Sometimes you have to do this blindly.
