When using Xinerama, screen position affects how windows that span screens will
be presented, where inaccessible areas are located, and where the cursor appears
when you move from one screen to another.
When using a multi-screen configuration, screen position affects only how the mouse
cursor moves from screen to screen.
4.5 Overlapping Xinerama
Hardware screens in a Xinerama configuration are usually set up to be adjacent??”but
they don??™t have to be. The screens can overlap, as shown in Figure 4-3.
One of the simplest uses of overlapping layouts is to drive two monitors with the
same image without using a video splitter. The ServerLayout for this configuration
looks like this:
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "layout0"
Screen 0 "Screen0" 0 0
Screen 1 "Screen1" 0 0 # Same origin as screen 0
InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
Option "SingleCard" "true"
EndSection

Overlapping layouts can also be used to creatively solve some tricky display problems.
