You shouldn't need any xorg.conf file.

After starting X, run

 DISPLAY=:1 xrandr --setprovideroutputsource "ATI Radeon 3000 Graphics @ pci:0000:01:05.0" "ATI Radeon X1550 64-bit @ pci:0000:02:00.0"

(in a terminal, or a session startup script such as ~/.xsession). Then
you can configure the outputs of both GPUs with xrandr or any graphical
monitor configuration tool using the RandR extension.
