it is related, but not exactly the same. I also had to manually edit
xorg.conf to get it to work. Ubuntu's install and safe-mode configures
xorg.conf wrong for my hardware (Fujitsu-Siemens S7110 with Intel
945GM), "vesa" and "i810" x drivers are used which do not work for dual
screen setup. I used "intel" x driver manually in xorg.conf and it works
correctly until you choose "Cloned Screens" from gnome-display-
properties.

After that it is not possible to change it back to not cloned mode from
gui. I can restore normal screen setup only by deleting
~/gnome2/monitors.xml and restarting X.
