Bug Description
I enlarge my Desktop by using a Samsung SyncMaster E1920 with my eeePC. (different pictures on each monitor) This works fine with the Gnome 2 shell. However, whenever I try to use the new Unity feature with dual monitors, both screens only show "scratches"

same with Compaq Mini 110c 945GME graphics.
also the external monitor can be used alone but only up to 800x600: the screen is partially corrupted at higher resolutions. However it can be used in 1280x1024 on standard Gnome.
