X server error

Hello,

Again, trying to setup a dual screen. I changed the device section of 
the X.org config file. I think the change is correct, but now I get an 
error. This is what it used to be:


Section "Device"
         Screen          0
         Identifier      "Intel Corporation 82815 ..."
         Driver          "i810"
         BusID           "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection

Section "Device"
         Screen          1
         Identifier      "Intel Corporation 82815 ..."
         Driver          "i810"
         BusID           "PCI:0:2:0"
EndSection


In particular, notice that the two devices have the same identifier. I 
think this is incorrect, so I changed the second one to "Intel_1" and 
started X again. This time it failed. I'm attaching the log file, but 
the relevant section is:

(II) Primary Device is: PCI 00:02:0
(--) Chipset i815 found
(--) Chipset i815 found
(II) resource ranges after xf86ClaimFixedResources() call:
         [0] -1  0       0xffe00000 - 0xffffffff (0x200000) MX[B](B)
         [1] -1  0       0x00100000 - 0x3fffffff (0x3ff00000) MX[B]E(B)
	......
	[14] -1 0       0x00001800 - 0x0000180f (0x10) IX[B]
Fatal server error:
Requested Entity already in use!


Okay, so I guess it's complaining that I can't declare the same device 
twice with different identifiers? That would make sense. But in this 
case, how is one supposed to get two monitors working?

Any help would be appreciated.

Best,
Daniel.
