Hi Gerco,

Not quite enough information to confidently answer.  Distro, release,
type of wacom tablet, video card, type of display (twinview etc.),
.fdi or .conf or xorg.conf, etc.?  But try these xsetwacom commands in
a terminal:

xsetwacom set "Wacom Cintiq 21UX2 stylus" Twinview "horizontal"
xsetwacom set "Wacom Cintiq 21UX2 stylus" Screen_No "1"

Where you'd use the "Device name" for your tablet from 'xinput
--list'.  And the screen number would be the one you want wacom
confined to, usu. 0 or 1.  If they work you can put them in a startup
script.
