I'm using fglrx drivers, also I have defined two "Screens" in my xorg.conf.d, I don't know if it has something to do with it (tried multiple solutions and when things got working i just left it untouched).

I had the same problem. You have to enable the xinerama use fla= g, even
if you do not intend to configure xinerama.

euse -E xinerama && emerge -av --reinstall changed-use world

will do the job.

Hope this helps,

I had the very same problem and I can conf= irm that using the xinerama flag fixes it.

I'm using= fglrx drivers, also I have defined two "Screens" in my xorg.conf= .d, I don't know if it has something to do with it (tried multiple solu= tions and when things got working i just left it untouched).
