Mine shows the same, but I still have the problem.

Will try some of these option.

Take a look at Control Center, Peripherals, Display, Multiple Monitors.

I have all the checkboxes selected under Mulitple Monitor Support.

Then the table shows:

   X Coordinate   Y Coordinate   Width   Height
Display 10  0   1600   1200
Display 2  1600  0   1600   1200

In xorg.conf:

Section "Device"
   Option  "CursorShadow" "True"
   Option  "TwinView" "True"
   Option  "TwinViewOrientation" "RightOf"
   Option  "MetaModes" 
"1600x1200,1600x1200;1280x1024,1280x1024;1024x768,1024x768;800x600,800x600"

   Option  "SecondMonitorHorzSync" "28-95"
   Option  "SecondMonitorVertSync" "50-120"
   Option  "AllowGLXWithComposite" "true"
   Option  "RenderAccel" "true"
   Option  "backingstore" "true"
   Option  "UseEDIDDpi" "FALSE"
   Identifier  "Card0"
   Driver  "nvidia"
   VendorName  "nVidia Corporation"
   BoardName   "Unknown Board"
   BusID   "PCI:1:0:0"
EndSection

My system is:
xorg-X11-7.0-r1
nvidia-kernel-1.0.8178-r3
nvidia-glx-1.0.8178-r1
KDE-3.5.2

but I've been using twin monitors since KDE-3.3.

[gentoo-user] OT: KDE does not recognice my Xinerama displays

[Dan Johansson]

I have a strange problem with my KDE setup. Xorg sends output to both of my 
monitors and I can move the mouse between my monitors (only one mousepointer 
is visable). KDE shows the same picture on both monitors but I can only click 
in one of them (if I try to click on the other monitor nothing happens). If I 
select Desktop -> Panels -> Identify in ControlCenter the small box with the 
namers 1 and 2 "overlap" on both monitors. Any suggestions on what could be 
wrong?

Here are the versions that I'm running on this box:
xorg-x11 6.8.2-r6
ati-drivers-8.23.7
KDE-3.4.3
