I do believe I have the exact same setup, except my flat panel is not
DVI-
Try adding 'Screen 0' and 'Screen 1' to the respective device sections
like so:
> Section "Device"
> Option "AGPMode" "4"
> Identifier "Radeon0"
> Driver "ati"
> VendorName "ATI"
> BoardName "Radeon VE QY"
> BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Screen 0
> EndSection
>
> Section "Device"
> Option "AGPMode" "4"
> Identifier "Radeon1"
> Driver "ati"
> VendorName "ATI"
> BoardName "Radeon VE QY"
> BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Screen 1
> EndSection
Also, I think it'd be good if you added 'Option "DigitalScreen" "true"'
to the device section hooked through your DVI, although I'm not really
sure exactly what this does. I would also recommend adding vertical and
horizontal refreshrates for both your monitors, but yet again, I don't
code the thing so I would have no idea if XF86 auto-detects these in
any good way.
Maybe you can tell me if you're experiencing the same thing as I am:
my console font looks horrible on my flat panel for some reason. It
really looks like the font's been ghastly degraded somehow, and I can't
think of why. X looks perfect though, and so does my CRT. Oh yeah, and
tell me if you manage to get proper acceleration on the radeon: the
GATOS drivers hard-reset my machine while the firegl drivers don't seem
to work with my 128mb radeon.
Cheers,
Kacper
