Multihead support in window managers

[nrvale0 pop uky edu]

  I've just run across something that I found surprising while
dealing with an Appian Jeronimo Pro card. According to the
Tech. Support people at XiGraphics, KWM and E are coded in such
a way that they will not work multihead while older WMs like
FVWM* and twm will.?. Note that multihead, at least in Xi-speak,
is not the same as Single Locgical Screen(SLS). So I'm not
able to setup GNOME/E for the Profs. here at school. Does anyone
have more information about this? Seems that a GNOME/FVWM*
combo might work. What about GNOME/Sawmill? Is this something
that WM implementers have to look out for or is Xi mistaken?
