The problem is still present but, and it could be my imagination, the
width of the strip seems a bit thinner. However I did this test with a
different monitor setup as well:

Primary:
  1680x1050 (16:10) @ 60 Hz (Laptop 15") LVDS
Secondary:
  1280x768 (16:10) @ 60 Hz (MED 30") VGA (Dodgy cheap TV in my furnished rental flat)

I also had to manually edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf to get the extended desktop to work.
Under Karmic it stated the need to edit the virtual resolution and if I wanted to change it. I answered yes, but it kept setting it to "Virtual 2048 2048", which didn't work, and it kept repeating the question. I manually changed it to "Virtual 2960 1056" which permitted the extended desktop to work.
