Valent, according to what I read, e.g., here
http://www.thinkwiki.org/wiki/Xorg_RandR_1.2#Notes_from_xserver-xorg-video-i..., the Intel GM cards before 965 only have 11 bit addresses for pixels and hence can only do 2048 pixels in either direction. Intel simply made a stupid design decision.

Under Fedora 9 I had a perfectly happy 1680x1050+1600x1200 (3280total) on two monitors. Still have the xorg.conf file for it.

Thank you.

The old xorg.conf is attached. Doesn't work under Fedora 10 - kdm.log starts filling up with (while waiting for the login screen to pop up). [mi] mieqEnequeue: out-of-order valuator event; dropping. [mi] EQ overflowing. The server is probably stuck in an infinite loop.
