hello,
thanks for your answer.
create :0.1 is the solution I was looking for.

with the patrick help, i sucess using gem with 2 X server. the only 
problem is that few minutes after the creation of the gem windows, my 
computer freeze : xfree is using 99% of the cpu.

it is strange that this append only on my computer...

same driver in big desktop mode work fine. so i'll use this mode even if 
it does not allow me to use my 1400 points screen better than in 1024 
points...

thanks
cyrille
