If you are using the fglrx driver, you probably don't want to use
xinerama and instead use the fglrx specific dual head stuff.
Also, the magic line that you want is probably:
Option "ForceMonitors" "tmds1,crt1,nolvds"
added to the "Device" section. The above line will display on the
dvi-d, the vga and disable the internal flat panel.

Honestly I don't know enough about video niceties to know if it will
be helpful, but here is how I have dualhead working on my desktop:

Section "Device"
Identifier "ATI Technologies, Inc. RV280 [Radeon 9200 PRO]"
Driver "radeon"
Option "MergedFB" "true"
Option "CRT2Position" "LeftOf"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"

Section "Monitor"
Identifier "DELL E176FP"
Option "DPMS"
HorizSync 31-80

EndSection
Section "Monitor"
Identifier "2DELL E176FP"
Option "DPMS"
HorizSync 31-80
VertRefresh 56-75
EndSection

I gave up on xinerama.
Good luck,
