Well, KDE supports dual head just fine with drivers which support current 
XRandR standards, but with crappy legacy drivers, it might not work. The 
Display portion of System Settings definitely expects a working XRandR. At 
most you may be able to get it to work by hand-editing xorg.conf.

If you're using a proprietary driver, try a Free one instead (radeon for ATI 
stuff, nouveau for NVidia crap), those tend to have better support for 
modern X.Org X11 standards. The proprietary crap is always lagging behind.
