[ati 9600] How to have dual monitor now with the new driver ?

[GiGGz]

Hi,

With the old driver I use MergedFB in order to have a "big desktop". I 
have a laptop and a CRT. With normal configuration I get (with the old 
driver) clone mode when I turn on my CRT. With a different Xorg.conf 
(see xorg.conf at the end) I could have an extended desktop on my LCD 
and my CRT. I have read that now the MergedFB option have been diseabled 
and we must use RandR...how can I do that, in order to have an extended 
desktop ? (with two different resolutions...)

Thx a lot,
Regards,
Guillaume

for example my xorg.conf...
