Any hope for 3 monitors and gnome shell under f18?

Hi,

Been using Fedora (& rh) for quite some time. Right now, I have enough hardware for 3 heads: I have 2 nVidia cards and 3 monitors. I've had this rig from F15, skipped f16, used f17 and now f18.

Gnome-shell and 2 monitors works OK for me. Almost really well. I'd really like to use that third monitor and keep gnome-shell. But this has been very elusive. I have tried many many configurations and combinations of drivers but nothing works. I'd even considered running 2 Xservers independently and using a sharing solution like synergy or the like -- that still is tricky and hard to get 2nd X server to start.

Does anyone have any suggestions about gnome-shell and 3 monitors. Or some reasonable idea were I can gnome-shell on 2 monitors and somehow take advantage of the 3rd monitor???
