Set up dual monitors on my friends fresh install of Ubuntu 11.10 Monitor 1 = 20" is first (original screen) Monitor 2 = 15" flat screen. These screens work fine cloned but when I try to spread desktop across the 2 monitors the ATI utility exits without error not changing anything and the Ubuntu utility produces an out of range message saying "requested position/size for CRTC 147 is outside the allowed limit ; position (1024,0), size (1024,768) , maximum (1680,1680)"

This makes no sense at all and would make a fine Micro$loth error message indeed !

Or am I just dense ?

The AMD (ATI) propietary drivers does not support multiple screens in Ubuntu 11.10 (Not yet) I'm waiting for a new release as well :(
