Interesting....

I run RedHat 7.1 (updated via RedCarpet) with a Matrox G450 (Aug 22
Matrox drivers); X 4.0.3-5; Gnome 1.4.0; E 0.16.4-7; and Evolution
0.99.2-ximian.3 .. all in xinerama.

Mine seems stable. Whether the problem is an X issue, or a Woody issue,
I don't know - however it's not an xinerama issue per-sae..

Do you want any further info from my system, to try to eliminate common
elements?
