           Summary: xrandr settings in xorg.conf have no effect
           Product: xorg

I have a dual monitor setup.  Upon upgrading to radeon driver 6.7.195, the
Xinerama stuff was obsolete, and I need to use xrandr instead.

By default, X starts with two cloned displays.  With the command line xrandr
utility, I can successfully change that to an extended desktop:

Screen 0: minimum 320 x 200, current 2560 x 1024, maximum 2560 x 1024
S-video disconnected (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
DVI-1 connected 1280x1024+0+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis) 338mm
x 270mm
   1280x1024      60.0*+   75.0     59.9  
   1280x960       59.9  
   1152x864       75.0     74.8  
   1024x768       75.1     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     66.7     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  
DVI-0 connected 1280x1024+1280+0 (normal left inverted right x axis y axis)
338mm x 270mm
   1280x1024      60.0*+   75.0     59.9  
   1280x960       59.9  
   1152x864       75.0     74.8  
   1024x768       75.1     70.1     60.0  
   832x624        74.6  
   800x600        72.2     75.0     60.3     56.2  
   640x480        75.0     72.8     66.7     60.0  
   720x400        70.1  

Of course, I'd like to have this setting by default.  I tried the settings as
suggested in http://www.intellinuxgraphics.org/dualhead.html.  The log shows
that the setting are indeed read by the radeon driver, but the screen is still
initialized in the default cloned setting.
