That is strange. Can you please post the output of "xrandr" and
"xdpyinfo -ext XINERAMA", both inside and outside the session?

No, probably not. The shadow mode is very slow compared to the full
desktop mode and is (for me) kind of an "unloved child". I never use
it. However, technically providing a default viewport position on
connection startup is something that should not be too complicated to
implement. (Therefore the viewport mode should work properly, that
is...)
