UT2004 and Nvidia Twinview

I have a nVidia Geforce FX 5700VE graphics card with a twinview. On nearly
all games (ie enemy territory) if i use fullscreen and the same resolution
as X in the game, the driver is smart and places the game on only one
screen.
When I had UT2004 installed about a year ago, this worked fine. But I have
recently installed it again, downloaded latest patches etc, and now it
places the window with half on each screen, which is a little annoying.
Trying to narrow down what's changed to make it not work, it seems to be:
- I've changed my resolution from 1280x1024 to 1024x768 since i last
had Ut2004 working with twinview correctly.
- Using the latest patch (but i'm pretty sure this happened even
without it, i was hoping the patch would fix it)
- Using the ebuilds from portage (but i've had the problem with the
installer on the disc too)
It's probably unrelated, but Ut2004 also does'nt seem to be exiting right, I
have to control-c the terminal i started it from to get it to actually exit.
Any idea on how to fix it? It works in windows right, but crashes within 5
minutes of starting on my box :<
