Thread: Multiple Monitors Multi-Display Not working well

i'm trying 4 monitors working in ubuntu 11.04 way to. have 2 radeon video cards 2 monitors connected each. proprietary ati drivers , catalyst control center i'm able see monitors , have multi-display setups, they're separated each video card. can move items , monitor 1 monitor 2, , monitor 3 monitor 4. i'm not able move windows 2 3 or 4. 2 separate display setups have own set of workspaces too. i've tried enabling xinerama, when log in after restart screen black , i'm forced reboot manually.
2 separate displays wouldn't of problem except keyboard doesn't seem work on application opened on monitors 3 , 4 after i've clicked on in monitor 1 or 2. pushing me towards more useful setup appreciated.

below 1 of configs i've been messing around with:

code:

section "serverlayout"    	#screen         "amdcccle-screen[2]-0" 3840 0  	#screen	       "amdcccle-screen[1]-1"   	identifier     "layout0"  	screen      0  "samsung" 0 0  	screen         "sceptre" 3840 0  endsection    section "serverflags"  	option	    "xinerama" "off"  endsection    section "monitor"  	identifier   "monitor0"  	option	    "vendorname" "ati proprietary driver"  	option	    "modelname" "samsung"  	option	    "dpms" "true"  	option	    "preferredmode" "1920x1200"  	option	    "targetrefresh" "60"  	option	    "position" "0 0"  	option	    "rotate" "normal"  	option	    "disable" "false"  endsection    section "monitor"  	identifier   "monitor1"  	option	    "vendorname" "ati proprietary driver"  	option	    "modelname" "acer"  	option	    "dpms" "true"  	option	    "preferredmode" "1920x1080"  	option	    "targetrefresh" "60"  	option	    "position" "1920 0"  	option	    "rotate" "normal"  	option	    "disable" "false"  endsection    section "monitor"  	identifier   "monitor2"  	option	    "vendorname" "ati proprietary driver"  	option	    "modelname" "sceptre"  	option	    "dpms" "true"  	option	    "preferredmode" "1920x1200"  	option	    "targetrefresh" "60"  	option	    "position" "0 0"  	option	    "rotate" "normal"  	option	    "disable" "false"  endsection    section "device"  	identifier  "amdcccle-device[1]-0"  	driver      "fglrx"  	option	    "monitor-dfp2" "0-dfp2"  	option	    "monitor-dfp3" "monitor1"  	busid       "pci:1:0:0"  endsection    section "device"  	identifier  "amdcccle-device[2]-0"  	driver      "fglrx"  	option	    "monitor-dfp3" "monitor2"  	busid       "pci:2:0:0"  endsection    section "device"  	identifier  "amdcccle-device[1]-1"  	driver      "fglrx"  	option	    "monitor-dfp2" "monitor0"  	busid       "pci:1:0:0"  	screen      1  endsection    section "screen"  	identifier "samsung"  	device     "amdcccle-device[1]-0"  	defaultdepth     24  	subsection "display"  		viewport   0 0  		virtual   3840 1920  		depth     24  	endsubsection  endsection    section "screen"  	identifier "sceptre"  	device     "amdcccle-device[2]-0"  	defaultdepth     24  	subsection "display"  		viewport   0 0  		depth     24  	endsubsection  endsection    section "screen"  	identifier "acer"  	device     "amdcccle-device[1]-1"  	monitor    "monitor1"  	defaultdepth     24  	subsection "display"  		viewport   0 0  		depth     24  	endsubsection  endsection
