Greetings -

I am trying to get a hold on simply extending, not making one massive desktop, so basically each monitor is a desktop configuration of it's own (and can actively do Compiz Fusion). The details are I am running a ATI X600 - I have had no problem on a single monitor running Compiz, but once I got BigDesktop configuration working, Compiz couldn't handle 2 1280x1024 screens, and on top of that, I miss being able to maximize one app to a single monitor (ie: Windows Virtual).

So my question is, aside from making Compiz work, is there a way to simple EXTEND instead of making 1 massive desktop? All I can ever seem to achieve is Clone, and that does me no good ;)

Any help is appreciated, did some searches, but no solid leads, maybe your powers of search are better, but a helping hand would be greatly appreciated.
