Are you sure xorg will display on three screens horizontally? I had the
impression that you could do two side by side or four horizontally *and*
vertically.
IOW, screen 1 left of screen 0, screen 2 above (or below) screen 0.
I also noticed that you don't have Option "Xinerama" "True" in your
ServerLayout section. Is that deliberate? I know ati cards will do
xinerama-like display natively, but I wonder if using the xorg.conf Option
would be more effective.
