Actually I think that's a tar.bz2.

It all compiled smoothly and works perfectly for me.  The performance 
is quite respectable on the small mimo screen.

Does anyone know how to make X auto-add screens? (e.g. with the help of 
udev and HAL)

I haven't tried xinerama yet.  I would probably be more interested in 
using it as a separate (output-only?) display; I'll have to investigate 
how to do that.

Have you considered using the X license?
