Default Seperate wallpapers when primary monitor is on the right...

The way my physical desktop is laid out forces me to have my primary
19" CRT on the right hand side, and my secondary 15" LCD on teh left.
Nvidia's goofy drivers will not allow independant wallpapers to work
correctly when the secondary monitor has a negative X-axis value in
the settings tab, i have tried this multiple times to no avail, so
long as you keep the monitor on top or bottom or to the right of the
primary, you are fine, go just 1 pixel to the left and the wallpapers
mess up, you wind up with a very weird orientation that causes teh
pics to span monitors and be offset, etc. Anybody know of any fixes
or is this something Nvidia needs to solve?

The best fix I think is to get rid of the wallpapers since they can
consume considerable memory resources that can be better used...

Yeah, that's what i wound up doing. It would be nice if all my sh*t
would play nicely, instead of fighting like a bunch of 4 year olds.
