Zaphod Mode stopped working after upgrade

I just upgraded my system to Linux Mint 14 (Linux 3.5.0), and Zaphode Mode
stopped working in the new system.
This is my simplistic xorg.conf that I used to achieve Zaphod Mode (maybe a
little different, because the original was lost in the upgrade and I based
it on an old backup):
Section "ServerLayout"
Identifier "X.org Configured"
Screen 0 "Screen0"
Screen 1 "Screen1" RightOf "Screen0"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Dvi0"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "Dvi1"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "radeon"
VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
BoardName "RV770 [Radeon HD 4870]"
Option "ZaphodHeads" "DVI-0" # <str>
BusID "PCI:2:0:0"
Screen 0
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card1"
Driver "radeon"
VendorName "ATI Technologies Inc"
BoardName "RV770 [Radeon HD 4870]"
Option "ZaphodHeads" "DVI-1" # <str>
BusID "PCI:2:0:0"
Screen 1
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen0"
Device "Card0"
Monitor "Dvi0"
EndSection
Section "Screen"
Identifier "Screen1"
Device "Card1"
Monitor "Dvi1"
EndSection
But when I launch XOrg, I get these lines on the log (the most relevant
line marked):
...
[ 811.224] (++) using VT number 7
[ 811.232] (II) [KMS] Kernel modesetting enabled.
[ 811.232] Requested Entity already in use!
[ 811.232] (II) [KMS] Kernel modesetting enabled.
[ 811.232] (EE) Screen 1 deleted because of no matching config section.
<-- (Only mention to "Screen1")
[ 811.232] (II) UnloadModule: "radeon"
[ 811.232] (II) RADEON(0): Creating default Display subsection in Screen
section
"Screen0" for depth/fbbpp 24/32
...
and so on with "Screen0" configuration, with no other mention of "Screen1".
The X session starts with a single screen. What is wrong with this config
file? Why Xorg can't create the other screen?
