do an lspci, and look for your video card take the BusID from there and put it 
in your xorg.conf file under the device section.

It's a little bit different format than lspci shows, but if you do a search 
for xorg.conf and BusID on google, I'm sure you'll find the proper format... 

actually mine says


BusID           "PCI:1:0:0"


and the corrosponding line from lspci says

0000:01:00.0 VGA compatible controller: ATI Technologies Incelp M10 NT [FireGL 
Mobility T2] (rev 80)

hope that helps...
