Yes they do as there are some combinations of system hardware/drivers and user requirements that sill require the use of xinerama. For example if you have a multi monitor system with an Nvidia card using the nvidia driver and you also do color critical work you MUST use xinerama since no other supported multi screen setup will allow you to calibrate the VCGT for each individual screen. > > Section "ServerLayout" > > Identifier "X.org Configured" > > Option "RandR" "false" > > Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0 > > Screen 1 "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0" > > Option "Xinerama" "on" > > InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" > > InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" > > EndSection > > > > If "Screen 1 "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0"", "Screen 1 > "Screen1" Below "Screen0"" the cursor is OK > > If "Screen 1 "Screen1" LeftOf "Screen0", you move cursor to the > left, the cursor will abnormal, cursor jump in the edge, can not move to > center > > The xorg print error info: > > Backtrace: > > 0: /usr/bin/X (xorg_backtrace+0x3b) [0x80e937b] > > 1: /usr/bin/X (mieqEnqueue+0x1ab) [0x80e8b6b] > > 2: /usr/bin/X (xf86PostMotionEventP+0xd2) [0x80c2d02] > > 3: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/evdev_drv.so (0x4ad000+0x48a1) [0x4b18a1] > > 4: /usr/lib/xorg/modules/input/evdev_drv.so (0x4ad000+0x4b96) [0x4b1b96] > > 5: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x6d5bf) [0x80b55bf] > > 6: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x122794) [0x816a794] > > 7: (vdso) (__kernel_sigreturn+0x0) [0x429400] > > 8: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x144d5e) [0x818cd5e] > > 9: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x1441cc) [0x818c1cc] > > 10: /usr/bin/X (miPointerUpdateSprite+0x172) [0x80a04b2] > > 11: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x5863d) [0x80a063d] > > 12: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x170957) [0x81b8957] > > 13: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x33a2b) [0x807ba2b] > > 14: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x38a8c) [0x8080a8c] > > 15: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0xe00c2) [0x81280c2] > > 16: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x103678) [0x814b678] > > 17: /usr/bin/X (mieqProcessDeviceEvent+0x1e4) [0x80e8744] > > 18: /usr/bin/X (mieqProcessInputEvents+0x6c) [0x80e87dc] > > 19: /usr/bin/X (ProcessInputEvents+0x17) [0x80b57e7] > > 20: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x2a1a0) [0x80721a0] > > 21: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x1ed7a) [0x8066d7a] > > 22: /lib/tls/i686/cmov/libc.so.6 (__libc_start_main+0xe6) [0x1d0bd6] > > 23: /usr/bin/X (0x8048000+0x1e961) [0x8066961] > > [mi] EQ overflowing.

It does not happen very often so I have not spent any time trying to figure out what is causing it. I am running the nvidia driver with a 7950 card. It has been doing this for some time with different versions of the x server and different versions of the nvidia driver.
