I have very similar problem, except it is only an issue while using compiz. In
detail:
I'm using a Thinkpad T42p with ATI FireGL T2 (M10) with Ubuntu 11.04.
Using metacity while having two monitors is working flawlessly.
But with enabled compiz (on laptop screen only is no problem) and then
connecting a 2nd monitor (or putting laptop into docking station with connected
lcd) both screens get scrambled (see attachment). Can't find any error messages
though.

(I tried to disable KMS, but no use.)

Some more details:
