Hi,

yes, you're right, a "real" Xinerama" is different cards combined in one 
display.

See the multiseat setup here:

As you see there, it's a multiseat sollution.
Well, to be honoust, it's using Twinview, a nvidia extension, which can 
make two monitors act as one display, and can make it look like Xinerama.

why do you think I do not get what I'm looking for??
