I see.... so apparently it's two different hardware interfaces driving
the two screens.

I suppose having two X11 screens is the normal way of configuring a
setup like that, but in principle it ought to be possible to configure
your two cards (or whatever they are!) as a single X11 screen, extending
over two devices (then you'll probably need xrandr to map it out
properly, as I do).

X.org is so flexible and powerful that it's hard to imagine that it
can't do this. Unfortunately I don't know enough to tell you how to do
it, but (FWIW) below is the relevant section of my xorg.conf.  It's
pretty simple. On top of this (as I mentioned), I run KDE 3.5.10 with
icewm as WM. And then I use xrandr to enable the xinerama effect.
And somehow... it works.

My icewm is 1.3.6.  I'm pretty sure this does NOT work with icewm 1.2.x.
