Use KDE (Kubuntu), it has better multimonitor support.

Hmm, seems to be working fine for me, have two going right now.

Same here.

Unity had a few bugs which seems to be fixed in this release but nothing annoying enough for me to switch.

Ironically, I also ran two screens on an ATI card which I bought to support their open source efforts. The nVidia was much better!

Care to send me a description of your setup? If I use the nvidia binary driver with twinview then the rendering is glacially slow. It's fast with nouveau but then I have display artifacts everywhere, regions of the screen get filled with solid blue.

If you only have two, it's bearable, though.
