Does Hydravision expose two separate displays in the Display control
panel, Advanced tab (i.e. numbered 1 and 2 in the dialog)?  If so,
what is the orientation of these displays? relative to the one
you have defined as the "main" screen ("use this device as
primary monitor")?  Can you click-and-drag both displays and report
the (x,y) coordinate of each one's upper-left corner (shows in
a balloon help window when you draw a monitor in the dialog)?
And are the X/Y pixel dimension of each monitor the same?

It looks like what's going on is the X/Y dimensions of the X root
window aren't matching the X/Y dimensions of the Win32 desktop for
some reason.  The same thing happens if you use multiwindow
w/o the multiplemonitors option on a 2- or 3-head box...
