Thanks so much. When I read the man page for radeon, it didn't seem
possible that you could have two different dimensioned displays, since
it's one framebuffer with two viewports, but I thought I recalled
someone on this list saying you could control the resolution of both
displays independently, so I thought I was doing something wrong...
Well, I do like the advantages of MergedFB over xinerama, but
unfortunately it is pretty annoying to have to move the mouse off the
edge to scroll the screen up and down. So, I guess I need to stick with
xinerama...
