Bug Description

I want to expand my 19' display to another 17' display ,but Ubuntu show me the message :
"
Could not apply the stored configuration for monitors
Request size (2390,768) exceeds 3D hardware limit(2048,2048), you muset either rearrage the display so that they fit within a (2048,2048) square or select the Ubuntu 2D session at login."

but my
 xrandr --verbose

pengzhan.wu, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/daily-live/current/ .

If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report:

apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-ati REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER

Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful.

Thank you for your understanding.
