[Panel-devel] Fixing bug: Kicker on Xinerama with different-sized screens

[Neil Hooey]

Yep, you definitely can with the fglrx driver at least. I have it
running on my laptop, with 1920x1200 on the left, 1280x1024 on the
right. Xinerama just assumes the height and width are 2*1920x2*1200
though. Maximizing windows also works with sane behaviour on both
screens.
