Latest redhat-config-xfree86 w/ the dual head code tracebacks on a dual 
head ATI FireGL X1.  Displays:  NEC LCD 1860NX, Dell P991.
I have X working manually with the stock 'radeon' driver but only single 
head so far;  ATI's fglrx drivers do the job for dual head though w/ no 
Xinerama - a deal breaker.  Yes the fglrx package is removed and 
lib-Mesa reinstalled for these results:

$ rpm -q redhat-config-xfree86
redhat-config-xfree86-0.9.9-2

$ /sbin/lspci

sudo redhat-config-xfree86 --reconfig
