Description phil 2010-07-06 01:20:13 UTC

Description of problem:
We have a 30" Widescreen monitor next to a 21" widescreen monitor, the latter is rotated by 90degrees
With kde system settings I can get the two screens recognised and the latter rotated but when i wnat them to act a single space the kde multiple monitors says I have no module installed to handle multiple monitors.
Trying to use an xorg.conf file seems to be a step backwards

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
RHEL6 beta 2

How reproducible:
Everytime

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Have two monitors
2.Configure both monitors in kde system settings
3.Use kde-system systems-multiple monitors to configure- reports multiple monitor module not available
  
Actual results:
I end up with a single screen duplicated

Expected results:
Both screens acting as a single space.
