This metabug is _not_ strictly a duplicate of Bug #96498.  Specifically
in the context of booting Ubuntu from the live CD, let us suppose that
we do not care if the dual head display is correctly configured.
Instead, we suppose that the user simply wants _a_ display, as opposed
to a "black" screen, this being the difference between an "immediately
usable" and "not immediately unusable" system, and assuming that the
text-mode virtual-terminals are still running successfully, as was _not_
the case in one of the beta CDs, in which case the situation is even
worse.  To achieve this, the configuration script simply needs to
distinguish the "currently in use" video card from the "not currently in
use" video card, and then continue to configure a  "single head" system,
as normal.  So the question is: Is there an easy way to distinguish
which video card is "currently in use"?
