Radeon 9600 (Mobile) with second DVI.

I've got a Dell Insprion 8600 with a radeon 9600 (M10).

I also have the "Port Replicator", or "Dock" which has on it a DVI port.

So, I bought myself a nice apple display to go with it that runs the 
same resolution (1920x1200) as the laptop display. It works nicely with 
Windows.

I have modified the Xorg server as provided by redhat in Fedora Core 3 
so that it "detects" the core mode-information for the display, and 
creates the "MergedFB" with the right data, since the original code 
wouldn't detect it correctly.

Regardless, external DVI output doesn't seem to be used, not matter what 
I do.

Has anyone else been working with this?

Is there anything I should try? There were patches posted last week, but 
they seemed relevant to power macs.

I have attached my Xorg.0.log.
