Thread: Help Positioning Monitors


hi guys,

i'm trying dual screen configuration working 1 of monitors rotated 90 degrees vertically, while @ same time maintaining 1 workspace across both of them (so can drag windows , forth across them). in order this, i'm forced disable twinview , go xinerama, that's ok. problem follows:

case unique in left monitor horizontal, while right monitor rotated 90 degrees, , vertical.

- when move cursor onto vertical screen, , when try move above left, horizontal screen's boundaries end, cursor jumps down bottom of vertical screen. can't access cursor above boundary on vertical screen. note vertical screen's bottom in aligned horizontal screen's bottom, , vertical screen sticks above horizontal screen, both have 1680 x 1050 resolution/widescreen aspect ratio.

- however, appears cursor having issues accessing upper part of vertical screen. when maximize windows in screen, fill entirely should. (but still can't access top parts of these applications cursor).

attached xorg.conf file. ideas? please note orientations, of first section, serverlayout, shows position values of screen 0 , 1 (630 1680 - 1050 move horizontal screen down in line vertical screen's bottom - remember take account vertical screen's 90 degree rotation):
