problem with 2displays + ati radeon + xorg7

i've experienced a strange behaviour using xorg7 with two displays(tv and tft). i configured it using the xorg.conf with the fglrx driver (video card ati radeon 9800pro). i actually get the two desktops and i can move the mouse around without a problem. but if i try to move a window to the other screen it appears on the same screen at the other side.
the two desktops seem to overlap and i cannot set any wallpaper for the second one using kde. the screenshot shows quite good how the displaysoverlap.
changing the resolutions didn't change anything about it.

any help would be appreciated
