Ah, fixed this one by putting
Option "MonitorLayout" "LVDS,CRT"
into the Device section for the radeon.

And fixed this one by commenting out the
Option "UseFBDev" "true"
in the same section, and commenting out
Modes "1280x854" ...
in the Screen section.
Now to work out why the external monitor is only running at 800x600 when I
know it can run at 1024x768.
