Ok, let's see. The way I see it should work is the following: 
 
1. You select Xinerama (or multiple heads) setup. (As opposed to only card) 
2. The first card is detected and you setup the specifications including the monitor; 
3. After clicking Ok/Next, the second card information is displayed allowing you, once 
again, to 
configure the monitor, resolution etc. 
4. After clicking Ok/Next the configuration is written. 
 
Currently the setup only prommpts you for the first card, never allowing you to 
configure the 
second/different card. Does this make more sense? On our setups we can only configure 
one 
card - unless we select the only card option which allows to configure the second one. 
 
I'll attach an XFDrake/hand tweaked example of my config.

This bug has existed since 9.0. Basically we have 6 machines here with two video 
cards, the 
one a SiS, the second on and Intel. It is difficult, if not impossible to configure 
both cards via 
the tool and get a working Xinerama installation.  
 
At this point you have to configure the first, save the config. Configure the second. 
Save the 
config. Combine the two and hopefully you have a working version.  
 
On Xinerama selection it (thye tool) should allow you to configure screen 1 and 
straight after it 
screen 2. As it stands currently it only configures the first screen and card which 
breaks our 
setup. (A large part of my woes this morning was due to this.)
