Here is my xorg config file for my IBM T41 with a "Radeon 7500".

Some notices :

 - I use ati radeon from xorg (not the closed-driver from ati)

 - I use synaptics driver.

 - I have an external USB Mouse (Microsoft).

 - If you want that Gnome/KDE/whatever use dual-screen, be sure to
activate xinerama.

I have also a question : Can you tell me if you still have direct
rendering with dual-screen (with the commande glxinfo) ? I : no.

I hope it will help you.

Sincerely yours, Mathieu.
