Created attachment 246041 [details] xorg.conf dual-head Xinerama from Fedora 7 This is the manual xorg.conf I tried which works fine in Fedora 7. The F8 s-c-display automatically generated one had problems with BusID's when enabling dual-head.

Xinearama isn't supported, yes I know we shouldn't crash I'll try and make it do something nicer... For dual-head you should just be able to use the xrandr command to set stuff..
Okay the crashing should now be fixed in updates-testing You still won't get xinerama but at least it won't blow up if you try... the ATI driver now uses randr-1.2 to configure things.
