Well, I got it working, but not like I wanted. I use xrandr in ~/.xprofile to setup the screens when I login, which is fine, but I don't understand why it won't work in xorg.conf.
Here's my .xprofile:
Code:
xrandr --output mon0 --pos 528x0
xrandr --output mon1 --right-of mon0
xrandr --output mon2 --below mon1
xrandr --output mon3 --left-of mon2
And here's what I ended up with in xorg.conf:

I wish I could get X to work by itself without needing the xrandr stuff, but on the login screen, it looks like all all of the screens are there but just stacked up on top of each other and are mirrored/duplicated on all of the monitors.
No big deal right now because it's working, but if anyone has any clues, I'd love to hear them....
