Greg, sorry. I should really stop leaving this for the wee hours of the
morning....
Well, I managed to get it working, and much better than I had hoped for.
I had hoped to get xinerama going, which would have meant no 3D. But I
found a way that doesn't need xinerama, and allows me to have a big
desktop split over the two screens with full 3D accelleration: MergedFB.
xorg.conf included.
