xscreensaver problems on dual monitors



Hi all,

I've got flavio's fglrx driver working OK under Debian stable, but when xscreensaver kicks on, the screensaver is only displayed on the primary monitor!

It's a bit bizarre, because both screens are faded out, once the fade completes, the right side (secondary monitor) displays the desktop again! (this is an active display, if something changes in a window on that display, it is shown while xscreensaver does its thing on the left monitor)

Has anyone experienced this problem and has a fix for me, or does anyone have any suggestions? (XFree86 config file attached)
