Hi,
the procedure outlined by David in
http://gravityboy.livejournal.com/38665.html does not result in a
configuration that is suitable for dual head use: I get both screens
cloned, and my usual xrandr gymnastics[1] to get them both alongside each
other does not work.
Yeah, the debconfage never supported creating dual monitors and there's no
plans to make this happen. What will ideally work in the end is to not have
any sort of configuration for this setup in your xorg.conf, and just let
the server detect it and set it up for you. I don't believe the current
code does this though, but I may be able to make it happen in the future.
Once the Xserver will support dynamic allocation of the Virtual space,
it will be trivial to add outputs dynamically without having to change
xorg.conf (right now you often have to change the Virtual line manually).
But it will take time for this to happen since it requires TTM first.
