KDE4 install - separate x screens

I just installed KDE4 on Kubuntu Gutsy alongside KDE 3.5.8. I have two separate x screens configured. One on the main monitor and one for the tv-out. Worked flawlessly in KDE3.5.x. After installing KDE 4, both x screens appear on the main monitor, overlapping each other. This makes KDE4 unusable. When I log back in to KDE 3.5.8 again all is fine..

Anyone know how to fix this? ?(

Apparently this is a bug in KDE 4... No dual head support!

http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=152676

Doesn't look like there will be support for it either until possibly 4.1.

Was sooo looking forward to this release too. Oh well... back to 3.5 ;(
