With a Radeon I found I had to use MergedFB instead of Xinerama. And I
also required 'ReverseDDC', and it was picky about which way round I
connected the two heads -- that's possibly less of an issue if you don't
have one DVI and one VGA as I do.

My config is at http://david.woodhou.se/xorg.conf.g5 -- although that's
actually what I'm using in FC4, because Evolution in FC5 is just too
broken for me to want to update just yet. Drop the 'RgbPath' and it
works in FC5 though -- at least for me.
