Videocard is a built-by-ATI Radeon 7500 (QW) and I've two CRT's (Viewsonic 17GS and Samsung Synmaster 900NF) hooked up to it. I had briefly tried getting Xinerama set up after installing RHL 9. Using the anaconda supplied XF86Config as my baseline, I kept getting the cloned mode. I tried again with the -5, -6, and -13 rawhides. Same deal. Tonight I decided I would fight with it some more. After playing around a bit I've narrowed the problem (at least my instance of it) down to 'VideoRam' entry. If the line is present (in both or either 'Section "Device"') I get clone mode; if it is omitted I get Xinerama. I do not know if this change would have also worked for an earlier XFree86 revision or will help anyone else. I don't know about the screen blanking problem earlier revisions supposedly had but I am not experiencing any problems to date (~30 minutes).
