Hy I've this trouble with dual monitor and separate x screens with compiz git & GeForce 6600, googled a lot but could not find the solution yet.
I run intrepid , monitor 1024x768 (screen 0) and a tv (screen1) 1360x768 (showing up on the left of default screen. The trouble is that compiz loads fine on screen0 but in tv one chunk of screen is missing, as if compiz keeps the same resolution (1024x768) also on the tv (screen 1).
Now same compiz git in debian sid displays fine in both monitor, but in intrepid no way I could gat it to work. (tried different version of compiz in intrepid, and xorg.conf from sid but still same result :( here is xorg.conf from intrepid:
