I have two screens 1280x1024 and 1920x1080(the first one was a gift) and an Radeon 5850(as you can see i build the rig before starting to use Linux^^) I use the proprietary driver(catalyst) as i need 3D support witch the opensource version doesn't yet have for the HD5xxx series as far as i know.
I am about to setup Openbox and use Feh as backgroundwallaper and Pypanel, but both have problems with my Screens setup as Multi-display desktop(One desktop over both screens). Pypanel goes over both screens, but i only want it on the smaller one and also it disappear's on the smaller one since the counts the full 1080 pixel of the taller screen. And Feh, well if i set the wallpaper with tile it makes to so it fills the whole desktop but the border to the second wallpaper is about on the middle of the 1080 screen, that can be solved with 2min in GIMP so nothing to bother about. Using "DISPLAY=:0.1 pypanel" returns "Xlib.protocol.request.QueryExtension" then "Segmentation fault" and nothing is happening, same with Feh. so i changed to Single Display desktop, problem is that the 1080 screen get black and the mouse is a mess of bricks when moving over to that screen.
here is my xorg.conf

So ether we find a solution that makes Single Display Desktop work, or something that makes DISPLAY=:0.1 work, at least on pypanel. I'm sorry that my English is not so perfect and i'm NOT a very experienced Linux user so don't facepalm to much when i mess it up ;-)
