This comes from experience on a G4 running Tiger with one LCD plugged into ADC and one plugged into DVI on the same video card. Sometimes if I didn't switch one of the flat panels on before I booted, the other one would get reset to some default values. The Apple display plugged into ADC was 1024x768 and the DVI one was first 1280x1024 and then replaced with a 1900x1600.
