So you have 2 physical screens connected with Xinerama. xmonad sets them
up correctly, and you can move focus between the two screens correctly,
and open new xterms? You can also modify the tiling algorithm with
mod-space.
However, your mod-1..n workspace switching don't work? Is it possible
you've got a strange mod key setting, perhaps? What does xmodmap print?
