Hi everyone.

Once I owned this card (exactly, Radeon VE) I started to discover the way it works 
with two crt heads under XFree86/Linux. I found that it doesn't. Then I spent some 
hours discovering radeon-driver.c code find out how it works since I've no experience 
in hacking XFree. Finally I discovered that the driver didn't correctly detect the 
types of both heads and simply hardcoded that both they are CRT. The upstream author 
has put there a 'FIXME' remark saying that he will do the detection more proper way 
_later_. So now I proudly use the driver hacked by myself and it works fine. ;)
If anyone needs the source/binary I may help.
Good luck.
