Mandriva 2006 Beta 0.3 Dual Head

Hi, Mandriva 2006 has picked up my dual head Radeon 9800 pro okay, and shows each Head in the configuration screen. However, I can only seem to run the monitors in Clone mode - so they are just showing the same on each monitor.

Hi,
 
Mandriva 2006 has picked up my dual head Radeon 9800 pro okay, and shows each "Head" in the configuration screen.
 
However, I can only seem to run the monitors in "Clone" mode - so they are just showing the same on each monitor.
 
Obviously, it would be much better to run them as an extended desktop - can anyone give me any guidance as to how to do this?
 
Thanks
 
Martin

Martin,
I am having the same problem. Are you using Xinerama? Maybe it's something in the XF86config? If you found a solution since posting please let me know.
Thanks,
Keller
