To have this bug be the master for several duplicate bugs and then mark it invalid is not helpful. Xinerama should work just fine with Compiz on a NVIDIA card, unless someone can update this bug with the definitive URL that states anything different, preferably from the official NVIDIA documentation site. I'm not able to find anything that states Xinerama with Compiz on NVIDIA does not work/not supported. Once the bug is updated with this documentation then mark it Invalid with a proper explanation and backup documentation for others to reference as they hit this issue. I also agree that if in fact this configuration is not supported, then it should be gracefully trapped and communicated to the user, not crash with a segfault.
