dualhead with an ati and a matrox card



Hello everybody,

i'm  trying  to  use my computer with 2 monitors connected on 2
different graphic cards.

My  first  graphic  card  is  an  ATI Radeon 9250 (AGP) and the
second one is a Matrox Mystique PCI (mga1064sg)

I  can  use them separately by choosing one of them as "Display
init first" in the BIOS menu.

when i try to use them both :
-  if the ATI is the principal device, my system crashes with a
black  screen  on  the  ATI-connected  monitor  and  the wakeup
message   on   the  other  monitor  (something  like  (c)Matrox
accelerated  graphics  ...).  i cannot even ctrl+alt+backspace.
the strangest thing is that i cannot find any error messages in
the Xorg.log !
-  if  the MATROX is the principal device, X starts but only on
the  matrox-connected  monitor,  the  other one showing the ATI
wakeup message and Xorg.log with those lines :
(EE)  fglrx(0): CAIL: CAILNoBiosInitializeAdapter failed, error
1
(EE) fglrx(0): GetBIOSParameter failed
(EE) fglrx(0): PreInitConfig failed
(EE) fglrx(0): R200PreInit failed
(II) fglrx(0): === [R200PreInit] === end

i use debian sid and ATI non-free drivers (stanchina packages)
i've already tried to disable the DRI section of my xorg.conf

So if anyone has any idea please help me !!!

thanks a lot for reading until the end ;o)

here is my xorg.conf :
