Not sure about your precise card. According to radeon(4) this is an
RV730 and it should be supported, but best to check yourself. Not sure
about the DRM support status though.

dual-link DVI is for high resolution (higher than 1920x1200) output.
If you want two monitors, you need two DVI outputs (which will
probably both be dual-link, if it's anything recent (and RV730 is)).
