Ok, kinda got it working.

Seems that the dual screen thing is a limitation of Gnome.
If I launch E (or even twm, lwm or wmaker) from the xinitrc
it opens up on the second screen no worries.

I can't move windows from one screen to the other (but I kinda
figured that wouldn't work anyway cause the DISPLAY variable 
would get narked!, I know I know I should use Xinerama if I
want to do this because the DISPLAY var remains :0.0 with one 
large virtual display). 

Anyways, Next I'll try and launch Gnome from E and see if that
works.

Oh BTW Single G400 Matrox with dual video ports
