Linux NVidia Twinview bug

Sep 21, 2005 Phonica link
When using NVidia Twinview for dual monitors (No xinerama) for linux, Vendetta tries to occupy both monitors (1600x600 as 2x 800x600 side by side) Under windows on the same hardware it works fine. Manually changing the values in the config file doesn't work :(

Gentoo Linux
XOrg 6.8.2
Latest NVidia(GLX) Ebuild v6629-r4 - GeForce 5200
Linux-2.6.12-gentoo-r10 kernel

If you run it in windowmode, you should be able to select your fullscreen resolution for one of the monitors, which might work for you.

Do you have modelines in xorg.conf for 800x600 (or whatever res a single monitor is)? I thought they changed it so in windowmode it have options, even if they weren't specified in xorg.conf, but maybe they didn't.
