I also looked into the patch and xorg-server-1.9.0/Xext/panoramiXprocs.c. The affected function looks exactly
like the function of the provided patch there.

the patch:
http://lists.x.org/archives/xorg-devel/2010-October/014150.html

I fetched the xorg-server source from the repository, uninstalled the nvidia binary driver, patched the source, rebuild the package
and Xinerama is up and running again. First time i debuild something :)

Setup: Ubuntu 10.10 64bit, Nvidia binary driver 260.19.12, 3xGTS250, 5
Screens

KDE is running stable.
