I have upgraded my system to ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty Jackalope), which overwrote 
the debian packages I have installed on top of ubuntu 8.10, and got to the same 
point as with clean ubuntu 8.10 install:
Only the first ATI videocard (out of 3) works. The other two screen indicate 
"No signal" situation.

Then I have installed the same packages as before (taken from debian unstable) 
and regained support of three ATI cards multihead:
x11-common_1%3a7.3+18_all.deb
xserver-xorg_1%3a7.3+18_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-core_2%3a1.4.2-10_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-input-kbd_1%3a1.3.1-1_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-input-mouse_1%3a1.3.0-1_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-video-ati_1%3a6.9.0-1+lenny4_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-video-mach64_6.8.0-1_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-video-r128_6.8.0-1_i386.deb
xserver-xorg-video-radeon_1%3a6.9.0-1+lenny4_i386.deb

It should be pretty popular configuration - multihead desktop based on
ATI cards. Does the configuration work out-of-the-box for other ubuntu
users but not me??


** Summary changed:

- The driver can not detect mach64 card in presence of NVidia card
+ Multihead desktop based on two or more ATI cards is not working

** Tags added: ati multihead
