Haven't been following the thread, and don't know if this will help
since it was an older version of X windows, but might give you some
clues and it just might be the same today. I had two monitors: and CRT
at 1280 and a Television running off of one MX440. They obviously had
two different resolutions. It worked just fine for years. Heres the
thread with the xorg.conf:

Starting mythFE is also in the thread
