I'm trying to get 2 monitors working on my machine. so far no luck. I
can't get the other monitor to power on. it just sits in hibernation.
X -configure can get it turned on. but it gives me a completely
useless xorg.conf
also I have a bug https ://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=7977
on freedesktop if anyone wants to see my xorg.0.log
my current xorg.conf
