I run triple head, ands have for a few years.

Do you have Xinerama enabled?

Its in /etc/X11/xorg.conf:
 (example from my own)

Section "ServerLayout"
    Identifier  "Simple Layout"
    Screen "Screen 1"
    Screen "Screen 2" RightOf "Screen 1"
    Screen "Screen 3" RightOf "Screen 2"
    InputDevice "Mouse1" "CorePointer"
    InputDevice "Keyboard1" "CoreKeyboard"
    Option "Xinerama" "on"
    Option "Clone" "off"
EndSection
