Did you try GNOME, or a stand-alone window manager? 

Did you look in ~/.xsession-errors to see if there's anything useful 
in there? 

The X log looks good, and clearly X sees both screens and is using 
them; it seems like a window manager problem to me also. I don't think 
Dan's trick of starting metacity will work, because KWM is already 
running on that display (albeit on a different screen).  If I'm not 
mistaken (and I may well be), both KWM and metacity normally want to 
run on all screens on the same display.  It's been quite a while since 
I mucked seriously with dual screen configs... 

I also don't use KDE or FC9, so beyond that, I prolly can't help much. 
Hope it provides some clues. :)
