Many cards have multi-screen capability but you will never see it in linux because not enough tech info is released to write a driver. A few manufacturers have come to the conclusion that the Nicrosoft cow won't always give the milk and have been adding to the efforts of XFree.
XFdrake is simply a tool to configure the XF86Config file without actually editing it. As such, it has limitations, because not every scenario can be anticipated and if most were, the tool would be very unwieldy. So the answer lies in "maybe" and has more to do with your video card driver than any particular distro. Civileme
