As a followup, switching to a TwinView setup only works if Xinerama stays off completely - If I turn on TwinView on each of the two cards and turn in Xinerama the problem will still appear.
If I leave Xinerama off - and so end up with two X screens each of which is spread over two monitors, the mouse will work, it's just not terribly functional the there are two task bars, each of which is spread over two screens and windows can't move between the two screens.
On the upside, it's way faster. And by way faster, I mean I that Firefox in Linux on par with it's Windows version (same machine booted into XP) whereas before something like Google Maps was a exercise in frustration and pain. I'd anticipated that Xinerama was slowing down performance but I had no idea how much...
