Okay.. as is always the way.. 5minutes after posting to this list, I 
managed to find the bit of information I was after..

Seriously, I have been searching all day using various combinations
of xinerama related words to try and come up with a fix.. including
'xpert xinerama' to try and get any older references out of this
mailing list.

Anyway.. to quote Mark Vojkovich from the 31 Oct 2001 in a thread
called 'can't get xinerama to work, but 2 screens work'..

This has come up many times before.  There is a Xineramification
bug in Xv.  In the XF86Config file, instead of

   Load "extmod"

Do:

  SubSection "extmod"
    Option "omit XVideo"
  EndSubSection 

  Either that or run XFree86 built from CVS.

===================================================================

Well.. I've just added the flag, and it works perfectly..

Sorry about the needless traffic, but might stop someone else making
the same mistake :)
