I installed the new ati 13.1 drivers. Was working perfectly on 1 card.
I installed a second video card (2xhd5830) and my computer would stall during boot.
I uninstalled the ati drivers, and the computer would boot up normally with the 2 video cards.
I installed the 13.1 drivers again, and 'sudo aticonfig --adapter=all --initial'. The computer boots up, boot my cinammon is gone and I'm getting double of everything on the taskbar. It displays the time twice, the network settings icon twice, and any window or application i open twice.
Any ideas?
On the plus side, my cgminer is mining from both cards.
oh, and here is my xorg.conf

I'm a noob at diagnosing, but there is 2 "screen" sections. Is each card trying to display a "screen"?
