it shouldn't do it .. are you using Xinerama? if so DRI messes up.. but it
should be possible to do DRI to a second head PCI card if the first head
(AGP or onboard) is also a DRI supported card... I've not done it as I
haven't gotten my hands on a PCI radeon or a second monitor :-)

You might want to check out the mergedfb stuff when Xorg 6.8.0 comes out,
it does dualhead DRI support on radeon..

Dave.
