Thanks for that, Bryce. Indeed, adding a "Virtual 2304 1024" line to
xorg.conf allows me to run my monitors alongside each other at full
resolution.

However, I would agree with you that having to set Virtual at all is a
bug. However, I couldn't find any bugs that seem to mention it.

>From what I gather from your comment, the GNOME Screen Resolution tool
can set the Virtual property on-the-fly. The reason I didn't discover
that is because I run the stock GNOME 2.22 control panel, which is not
xrandr 1.2-aware -- not the Ubuntu-provided one, which is aware of
multi-monitor setups. Is it possible to do set Virtual with xrandr or
radeontool on-the-fly? I couldn't find a way to do it.
