System boots to a blank screen when Xinerama is enabled

When the Xinerama extension is enabled in `/etc/X11/xorg.conf` on a system using the nvidia/nouveau driver, the RANDR X extension gets disabled. Consequently, login screen fails to start upon boot due to the RANDR X extension being disabled. To work around this problem, do not enable Xinerama in `/etc/X11/xorg.conf`.
