Edit the oglerc file and change the following:
      <geometry>
          <width>400</width>
          <height>300</height>
        </geometry>
       <geometry_src>user</geometry_src>

When running xinerama the xserver reports the geometry for the
combined display of the monitors but we need the geometry of just
the one that the video should be displayed on. So we override this
in the oglerc file with the 'user' set geometry.
If you have a widescreen monitor the width/height values should
probably be 1600/1000 instead of 400/300
The values are the size of the monitor in mm (but the important thing
is the aspect, not the absolute size)
'man oglerc' for more info on <geometry_src>
