OK, will try that. Are you sure that the "3840 1920" should not read "3840
1200" as my scvreens are 1920(x2)x1200?

No, I mean one big screen with two monitors.

Not what I am realy after, but will test anyway.

What you would need for your setup is using the proprietary NVIDIA driver and
running

sax2 -r -m 0=nvidia -b NVidia_DualHead

On the wiki is says that the -m should not be needed but will try and
report back.
