Hello,

why are you loading three device sections with two drivers? Could you
create a completly new xorg.conf with aticonfig --initial? Also some
options like xinerama may be moved now completly for the AMD internal
configuration foo, so you have to use amdcccle/aticonfig to
enable/disable some features.

Always if we think we are right,
