Hi Anselm,

I suggested disabling Xinerama just for consistency; the suggestion
above the options said "un-comment if you want it." I'd be fine with
leaving the options uncommented, but changing the suggestion to
"comment if you don't want it." It compiles fine for me either way; I
have the headers, but no dual monitor setup. I do think it would be a
good default to leave them commented, though, because if you have
multiple monitors, you probably know that you want Xinerama enabled.

Cheers,
Andrew
