It would appear so... since even running the same native xorg driver (ati
radeon) on both outputs of the same card, I have issues with composite and
xinerama.  I was only able to get it to work when I ran a single instance
of the driver in merged-framebuffer mode, covering both monitors.  Even
then, it failed at first, because I had forgotten to turn xinerama off,
even tho it had nothing to do because there was only one framebuffer.  It
only worked (and worked well enough to impress me, I might add), once I
turned xinerama off, by commenting the line that turned it on.
