I have been plagued with ?this bug for about a month; every time I loaded a
libreoffice component (calc or writer), the system lost track of the dual
screens, often putting a copy of the first screen up, then after a few more
seconds stopped accepting input from keyboard or mouse clicks (though pointer
moved I think). I don't know if SysRq worked because I use the box next door to
reboot via ssh.

I'm using debian unstable amd-64 with nouveau 1:0.0.16+git20110411+8378443-1
and  a nVidia G98|GeForce 8400GS. I used a 3 line xrandr script in my bin
directory to enable dual screen after kde finished booting.

Thanks for the hints; the addtion of a minimal xorg.conf with wrappedfb in it
seems to have solved the issues for me.
