According to Xi( I'm no expert here ), what you are describing is
not multihead but Single Logical Screen(SLS).
An example of multihead would be four distinct desktops running
on four different monitors. An example of SLS would be *one*
desktop quartered across four monitors. I believe Xinerma(sp)
does the latter.
Again, according to the guy I spoke to at Xi...flames > /dev/null.
