Does it really work ? With 2.4 multi-headed console, X blanks the second
head when it launches, even if i don't display anything on the second
head. I tried tailing the /var/log/XFree86.0.log on it, but to no avail.

BTW, i suppose you mean dual head as in one X on one head, and another X
(with another user, keyboard and mouse) on the second head. How do you
imagine this would work when both head are using a shared accel (XAA or
DRI) engine ?
