Trouble with dual head on FC5, Radeon 9500 Pro.

So here's the deal. I've got a Radeon 9500 Pro, I'm running FC5 32bit on an AMD64 3200, and trying to get dual head working. I had it working back when I was using FC4, but my old xorg.conf didn't work anymore once I upgraded.

I am trying to use ATI's fglrx driver. I used the "radeon" driver with FC4, but it doesn't work for me in FC5 (when X starts, the screen goes black (but not off)).

So, if somebody wants to check out my xorg.conf (http://ablegray.com/stuff/xorg.conf), I would much appreciate it. I don't really know what's
going on with it. That link is to my current xorg.conf, which displays things on the right-most screen (Monitor0, Screen0), and the other doesn't get a signal.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike
