What kind of problems are you having and which desktop are you using?

To enable Xinerama just add the following line to the ScreenLayout section of
your /etc/X11/XF86Config file:

     Option     "Xinerama"

It seems to me that KDE has better support for Xinerama than Gnome.

Here an example XF86Config that I use:

Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier     "Simple Layout"
        Screen         "Screen 1" LeftOf "Screen 2"
        Screen         "Screen 2" 0 0
        InputDevice    "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice    "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
        Option         "Xinerama"
EndSection

        SubSection "Display"

        EndSubSection
EndSection

Since I have a dualhead card, the device is listed twice.  The second is
identified as Screen 1.  The first is Screen 0 by default.

Later,
