strange display issues - 9.1 to 9.2

19 Nov 2004

      Hi,

On 9.1 with AMD64 (emachines m6807 w/ati radeon 9600) I had
a multihead display with the NON ATI driver. My original
XFree86 file is below. I know I had to change "keyboard" to
"kbd", but no matter what, I can't get DUAL heads again...
 :-(

I thought XORG and XFREE were supposed to work pretty much
the same? Has anyone gotten dual head/framebuffers to work
on one of these beasts?

thanks
Kat
