With the new X the only legal way to have multiple displays is to place
them (per card) into a single virtual screen.
But if you do so, and don't clone, but place your displays alongside
each other, then the background image gets screwed.
Gnome takes the (usually huge) virtual screen as the display for the
background instead of painting the image on a per-display basis.
In other words, a centered background image is placed across your
displays in the center of the virtual screen, a stretched/tiled one is
stretched/tiled over the whole virtual display, instead of the physical
ones.
** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Incomplete
