Hi, FWIW, I've only been able to get multihead working with two identical Matrox Millenium II's and a G400 DH.
The G400 would also work in Xinerama, while the two Millenium II's won't, which is unfortunate as the the documentation describes this as a supported configuration (and I purchased these for just this purpose). As for the Dell's, I've added Millenium II's to OptiPlex GX110's to use in a similar configuration to your Dell+ATI combo (ie. onboard and add-on multihead). These work fine in Windows, but fail in X. Jeffrey H.
