thanks

Hi all!

This bug is not fixed in the packaged version, but the latest version from 
git contains a fix, see the bug log on xorg bugzilla #615.

There is a workaround, though: loading matroxfb_base with modprobe (thus 
switching to the framebuffer), but *not* using UseFBDev in xorg.conf gets 
the 2nd head running.

Caveat: I only got clone mode, and then only with mouse pointer on one 
screen.  real dualhead has some bugs still.  See xorg #12598 
(<https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12598>)  I'm not entirely 
sure if that's a remnant of #4015 (xorg again) or completely unrelated, but 
probably the latter.

cheers
