Dual head t42 with Fedora 7, tricks?

I'm running Fedora 8/9 Preview, and the easiest way to do it would be to 
use the 'xrandr' (XResizeANDRotate) command to accomplish this.  Fedora 
7 had/has the command, but with limited support.  Easiest way to do it 
would be to upgrade to Fedora 8, or wait another 16 days until Fedora 9 
comes out.  Then upgrade.
