Hi all, this bug is still valid for Hardy. I have a slightly different setup with a normal G550 providing one VGA and one DVI connector. Here are two LCD displays attached (both NEC 1880SX with 1280x1024) used with a Xinerama layout.
What I found updating from 6.06 to 8.04 is the second head (DVI connector) is not switched on when X ist starting (as in Dapper). I also found the second head can be switched on in two ways, starting from a gdm login screen: a) Changing to a console (e.g. Alt-F1) and changing back to the gdm login screen. b) Loging in via gdm and loging out again. This situation is not very attractive and should not continue for the next two years. It is a pitty that there is only a fix available for the 1.9.100 release which is not compatible to the Hardy xserver, as I found.
