I got working dual head on fc2t3. At the end of this email is my
xorg.conf file for the configuration. I have a Radeon 7200 in my AGP
slot, and a Radeon 7000 PCI card at "PCI:2:14:0" on an Asus CUSL2 mother
board.
I determined the "PCI:2:14:0" value by doing the following:
sudo X -configure
That seemed to find both of my cards. I then pasted the "PCI:2:14:0"
into the "Videocard1" section of the dual-head xorg.conf generated by the
Gnome display manager, and it worked like a charm. Here is a screenshot
of the results:

Is this a Gnome problem that it can't recognize where the PCI video card
is on the bus? Gnome tried to use "PCI:1:0:0", and by default gave me a
single 640x480 display on Videocard0. That was quite a shock since I
should have 3200x1200 of usable X display area.
Regards,
Tony

# Specify which keyboard LEDs can be user-controlled (eg, with xset(1))

# To disable the XKEYBOARD extension, uncomment XkbDisable.

# To customise the XKB settings to suit your keyboard, modify the
# lines below (which are the defaults). For example, for a non-U.S.
# keyboard, you will probably want to use:
# Option "XkbModel" "pc102"
# If you have a US Microsoft Natural keyboard, you can use:
# Option "XkbModel" "microsoft"
#
# Then to change the language, change the Layout setting.
# For example, a german layout can be obtained with:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# or:
# Option "XkbLayout" "de"
# Option "XkbVariant" "nodeadkeys"
#
# If you'd like to switch the positions of your capslock and
# control keys, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps"
# Or if you just want both to be control, use:
# Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:nocaps"
