Are you using the Matrox provided drivers
(mga_drv.o and hal_drv.o) or the kernel provided
drivers. Mandrake 8.0b2 was supposed to fix G450
issues. I cant make it work at all as of last night
with Kernel provided modules, or XF86 stock
drivers. KDE 2.1 came up for me with RH 7.1b but
I could not access the second display at all.
Oh well there is the weekend to fight it I guess.

I just simply run one large dual headed desktop across two monitors with
a G450 using xinerama. KDE doesn't know the difference and behaves
normally. The other window managers, at least the ones shipped with LM
7.1 work nicely as well.
