I'm trying to get a system running Centos5 to recognize two ATI
HD2600XT Radeon Dual head cards and three monitors and am pulling my
hair out.
I'm using the latest ATI drivers and I can get each card to work alone
but when I try to get both at the same time I get an error in the Xorg.
0.log that indicates:
(EE) fglrx(2): Multiview is not supported on the first adapter; this
screen will now shutdown.
(EE) fglrx(2): PreInit failed
Anyone know what this means???
My xorg.conf file is as follows:

Using this I get the card in PCI 1:0:0 working with dual head but no
signal on PCI 2:0:0 card.
I've Googled and Googled but have not come up with anything on this
error.
If I uninstall the ati drivers I can use the radeon_tp drivers and get
three screens but I cannot get anything other than a mirror of the
first screen on the second screen hooked to the dual head card and
when I try to access it with either PCI:1:0:1 or PCI:1:0:0 with the
Screen option of 1 I crash the system deader than a door knob.
Help!!
