Try replacing the VESA driver with the Radeon driver and see what happens.

Driver 	"vesa"  -->  Driver "radeon"
	or	-->  Driver "ati"


I have a Radeon 9000 at home that I had to tweak my XF86Config BusID to 
get it working correctly.  I'll take a look at it when I get home tonight.

It might be the way the BusID is written.  On my dual-head setup at 
work, I have PCI:0:13:0 and PCI:1:0:0 - not sure if have an extra 
decimal place causes a problem (PCI:00:13:00) off the top of my head.
