You need to recompile the kdelibs package. When you are recompiling it,

If that does not help, contact me off the list and I will try to help you.

Where did you get your KDE rpms? If it is MDK's it should have Xinerama
support compiled by default and the Enable Xinerama Support option should not

This was stated in my original message to which Balaji responded.
The problem is that KDE is not allowing me to turn on it's "xinerama
awareness".

My understanding is that KDE is not currently fully xinerama aware. One of
the features for 3.1 is to enhance this. You can see who is working on this
as well as get status at
http://developer.kde.org/development-versions/kde-3.1-features.html
There was also a brief discussion about xinerama and
