Hi,
In case we replace the i810 below in the "Device" section by "intel".
Then none of the multimonitor modes work with ATI Card.
Kindly let us know why this is happening.
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card1"
Driver "i810"
VendorName "Intel Corporation"
BoardName "Integrated Graphics Controller"
BusID "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection
Section "Device"
Identifier "Card0"
Driver "ati"
VendorName "ATI"
BoardName "Rage Mobility P/M"
ChipSet "ati"
ChipId 0x4c52
ChipRev 0x64
BusID "PCI:2:0:0"
EndSection
Best Regards
Deepak Bhatia

The i810 driver uses the BIOS and that older driver requires some manual
configuration. The intel driver uses the new randr extension and can
detect when monitors are attached.

Because the Clone option is controlling a single card and it needs to
know when do display cloning.

used.
Yes, but that's virtually gone with the new Xserver 1.3 and RandR 1.2 as
it's pretty much all dynamic now.
