Bug#245111: kcontrol: Missing "Multiple Monitors" configuration module



Package: kcontrol
Version: 4:3.2.2-1
Severity: normal

I'm testing my system in Xinerama mode, and it comes up fine. 
However, I've been reading in reviews of KDE 3.2 that it is supposed to
have a new and much improved module for Xinerama configuration. I've
seen screenshots where a "Multiple Monitors" item appears just below
"Multiple Desktops" under "Desktop", and I certainly can't find that.

Also "Peripherals -> Display -> Multiple Monitors" says that "This
module is only for configuring systems with a single desktop spread
across multiple monitors. You do not appear to have this configuration."
But I do, at least I think I do, assuming it is Xinerama it is referred
to. I type this on the second screen. 

However, I also note that "Desktop -> Panels" understand that I have a
Xinerama set-up, as it has the "Xinerama screen:" box.
