Xorg log for git master

I have two flat panels and a TV connected to my rv770.  Ordinarily, I use the
two flat panels for X.  In order to display things on the TV, I have to disable
one of the flat panel outputs with xrandr and enable to the TV output. 
However, if I do this and then disable the TV output again, the flat panel will
not work again.

The non-working panel says it is receiving an input signal but it is out of
range and recommends that I set the resolution to the panel's optimum.  This
panel is connected by a VGA connector.

This is evidently touching something deep as restarting X does not bring the
panel output back from the dead; it comes alive but still reports a bad input
signal.  Even stranger: when switching to the console in this state, the
workingness of the monitors is reversed; the panel that is dead in X displays
the console and the panel that is working in X is dead.

This happens with version 6.12.3 of the radeon DDX driver, and with git master
(both kernel 2.6.32 without KMS.)
