I have a remote Linux VM that runs Ubuntu 12.04. I currently use NX to connect to the remote machine and work on it in a GUI environment. On my host computer, I have 2 monitors of different sizes (22" and 24"). When I choose "Fullscreen on all screens" in NX it simply assumes there is one large screen and the top of the 22" screen is cut off.

What I want is a client that can spread over both of my screens and that the Linux machine will know that I have two monitors and behave accordingly. Is that possible with NX, or some other client?

NX is difficult with multiple monitors. Furthermore, it is only supported until Ubuntu 12.04, but not in newer versions. You'll probably wanna tryout other VNC servers like x11vnc for instance. Try out http://www.karlrunge.com/x11vnc/faq.html#faq-xinerama as well.

Hope I could help! Don't forget to vote! ;)

x2go also uses NX technology and has support for Xinerama. This should solve your problem.
