I'm using Xinerama to make one large T-shaped virtual display out of two 1920x1200 monitors, one landscape and one portrait. I've read stuff which implies it might be possible to do this with some melange of XRANDR + -nvidia TwinView + "Virtual" in the "Screen" section, "Display" subsection -- see <http://thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_RandR_1.2> -- but I didn't get anything but a frustrated headache from my attempts.

Whenever I start up X, it loads RandR, so far as I can tell (The xorg log shows that it is indeed loaded), but If I ever try to do anything via xrandr, it tells me that the extension is missing on my display. m3r1k@reborn-desktop:~$ cat /var/log/Xorg.0.log |grep RandR (==) RandR enabled (==) RandR enabled m3r1k@reborn-desktop:~$ xrandr -q Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0". RandR extension missing I'm not sure what to do.
