Xinerama maximized windows are scaled over both monitors

Hello!

Situation:
I have 2 monitors 18,1´´ and 21´´ widescreen. I want to run them with different resolutions side by side. I have allready configured xinerama, but I have two problems:

1. problem:
The mouse-cursor mutates to a quadrat.

2. problem:
When I maximise a window as standard-user, the window scales across both screens. I only want to maximize it on the activated screen. When I create another user and log in all goes the way I want. So it must be an option to switch on or off in the control center or in a configuration file. But I cannot find the switch. Perhaps someone knows where it is?

Here is my xorg.conf:
