Xfce and Dual View

Hi,
i have Ubuntu 8.04 installed and i wan't to add Xfce desktop. But i have a problem.

I have a Nvidia GS7900GS grafic card an two monitors with different resolutions. It works fine with nvidia restricted drivers and TwinView on Ubuntu/Gnome. But if i try to start an Xfce session Xfce won't start if TwinView is enabled. With only one monitor it works. It also works with seperate X Servers, but on secondary screen i have no panels.

Is it possible to run Xfce with TwinView?

regards
burli

thank you!
grazie!
