When one graphics pipe is set up to display two channels, it's just a
single large "managed area", or framebuffer -- perhaps 2560x1024 in
your case, with the left half going to channel 0 and the right half
to channel 1. You'll need to explicitly specify in your Performer
apps an origin of (1281,0).
