Argh. I'm an idiot. I assumed since mod_xrandr was loaded that 
mod_xinerama had been loaded, too. This is working well for me, too, now. 
Thanks, and sorry for the noise.

Yep, in the same "shit-or-rama" thread I mentioned.

BTW, Tobias Hommel: I'm using your ebuild from a few days ago, and it 
doesn't seem to have that patch. (It has mod_xinerama-20080902 rather than 
-20080923.) Putting that in was just a matter of: grabbing the tar.gz from 
http://wannabehacker.com/src/mod_xinerama-20080923.tar.gz (Thanks 
Thomas!), tar -zxf'ing, renaming the root dir, tar -jcf'ing, and bumping 
the module's _PV.

Thanks all,
Ben
