Sam Liddicott, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

I've now added a 3rd monitor using displaylink USB graphics card. So I have 2 X screens: one is my ati radeon with 2 monitors, and one is the display link. Windows on the ati which are maximized now fill two monitors instead of just one. xrandr (when run on the 2 screens) reports the two screens properly. xrandr (when run on the 1 screen) reports that properly too. So I don't know why the maximizing should have changed. I'm not using xinerama although when I was it had the same behaviour.
