Public bug reported:

Every time I launch a GUI program from the terminal, I receive the
following error message:

Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0".

I use Xinerama to rotate one of two monitors in a dual-head setup.
(AFAIK this isn't possible using TwinView) Upon upgrading from Hardy to
Intrepid, I started getting these annoying (and useless) warnings.
Other than the warning, everything seems to be working correctly.

As I understand it, xrandr should be disabled when Xinerama is enabled, but 
that doesn't seem to be happening.  Using 
   Option "RandR" "off"
in my xorg.conf has no effect.  I've attached my xorg.conf attached for 
reference.
