I just found a bug in Leopard. (I Already Reported to apple, had anyone else noticed this or know of a work around...)

I am running X11 on my MacBook Pro with an external Monitor. I try to drag my X11 Window to the second display. It drags fine until my Mouse Icon hits the edge of the first screen. Even if I move the mouse to the second screen I am unable to move the X11 Window into the second screen 100% (The best I can do is 1 Pixel in my primary and the rest in the second screen.
 
work around for X11 multi-screen bug

It is possible to move X11 windows by dragging them within the spaces view. The window can not be moved on the Desktop after doing so but maybe this helps until the bug has been fixed - hopefully with the next update.
