I just set up a local multi-user system using Backstreet Ruby and a
modified X server. I was actually able to run DRI on the primary head
by loading the DRI module, and then set
Option "DRI" "False"
on the second head (in the Device section).
I don't know if it'll work for people with a different setup, but it is
worth a shot.
