I have a desktop with a dual head ATI graphics card[1], when I boot and login the same image is shown on both monitors. Once I have logged in I can run the command: xrandr --output VGA-0 --left-of DVI-0 and that sets things up as I want them (Xinerama style). Despite much googling I can find no way to make this persist. Can anyone offer any suggestions? I've attached my xorg.conf file in case it is relevant. Many thanks, Keith.
