I'm running a AMD64 Gentoo System, Kernel 2.6.20 (Gentoo Sources).

Card is a PCIE X800GT dual DVI out (R423).

I'm trying to run MergedFB to have an extended desktop across two Monitors. I
believe the config is good because both monitors seem to be successfully
detected in my Xorg log. But when x is started (KDE) the second screen never
appears to initialize. Looking at the pager the desktop is extended as onto the
other display  and I can scroll my mouse off the edge of the screen as though
the other monitor is active.

In doing some research before opening this bug I came across bug #1666 which
seams to be similar but when I use 'xset dpms force off' the primary monitor
goes into standby mode similar to the secondary monitor but when I move my
mouse only the primary display comes back.
