I'm running dual-head on my Sony VAIO PCG-GR300 as we speak. It's an
ATI Radeon Mobility M6 LY chip. I'm not sure what the Clone options
you've got in there are doing, but as I understand it, Clone usually
means same picture on both heads, which mine seems to do on it's own
if I don't configure it for dual-head.

Anyway, my XF86Config is available at
http://www.2bithacker.net/vaio/XF86Config

Only thing I can't do is use accelerated OpenGL, since running both
heads takes up too much memory, and my poor laptop doesn't have all
tat much video RAM. :(
