I tried with an ordinary CRT monitor, and it didn't work. Do i need to
have anything installed? Is xinerama necessary?

Thanks

IN /etc/X11/xorg.conf   look that the file. Near the bottom,
you'll find a  screen section:

<snip>
Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Screen0"
        Device  "Card0"
        Monitor "Monitor0"
        DefaultColorDepth 24
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth   1
                Modes  "1440x900" "1024x768"
        EndSubSection
        SubSection "Display"
                Depth   4
                Modes "1440x900" "1024x768"
        EndSubSection
<end/snip>

You may have to revisit some of your drivers in your kernel, depending
on how your kernel is configured, but may not also.....

I'd save an old copy of anything you modify, so as to make
recovery from mistakes, easy....
