dual-setup help.

[Tweisted]

Hello everyone I was wondering if someone could give me a hand with this ongoing problem ive been having with dual monitors. Here is my setup

Im running

Ubuntu 10.10 64bit
amd athlon X4 64bit
Ati radeon 57000

What im trying to setup is have 2 screens with there own desktop. Like you do on your main screen when installing Ubuntu, I want that same thing on my second desktop. So it would be 2 seperate desktops on 2 seperate monitors. Here is my xorg.conf file.

If someone could give me a helping hand I would very much appreciate it. Ive been having so much trouble trying to figure this out. Any help is much appreciated. Need any more information please let me know.

Thank you all very much!

If I understand you right, you want to set up separate xscreens, both screens will have their own panels and will have separate access to the (same) desktop, but you can't move windows between them. Is that correct?

If so, take the xorg.conf of my mom's machine as a reference:
