X server error

I'm still playing with my xorg.config, and so I tried  changing mine to
look more like yours. As someone mentioned we have different hardware
so this will probably not mean much, but adding the Screen 0 and Screen
1 lines in the Device section caused one of the monitors to power down
as soon as it started the x server. Try removing those lines. Suposedly
they are asigned default numbers based on the order in which they are
listed if no number is provided.



Remove the 0 and 1 next to "Screen" in the Layout section as well. 



Renaming the identifiers to the generic Screen0 etc names also caused
problems, but that just seems silly and I must have done something else
at the same time. 



For those who do get at least clones to work, try adding 

Option          "CRT2Position"		"LeftOf" (or RightOf etc.) to the first
Device section.



Also try it without enabling xinerama, on my system it works better.
