Hey, thanks again for the pointers, two heads are better than one!  I've
still got some font issues to hammer out but no big deal...

I do seem to be having trouble with DRI though, and what little info I
find about mergedfb for radeons is over my head, likely because it is
not officially released yet...  I'm not sure if that is something I need
manually or what...

RI at present.
Please use only one Device/Screen section in your XFConfig file.

Anyway, I've posted new logs and my config again.  I'm sure there are
probably some driver options or modules I am missing.

BTW, outside of the message in the logs, if I run glxgears, I get a
blank, black box on one monitor, and when dragged over to the other I
get the gears, but very very slow.

Thanks again!
