I just installed a S3 Virge/DX PCI in a workstation, along side an ATI Rage
3D AGP card.  I added a few entries to /etc/X11/XF86Config-4 and applied
some magic, and multihead worked first go.

Try the Xinerama HOWTO: http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Xinerama-HOWTO.html
it had all the magic details in it.  You can also see the config for the
workstation I set up at http://spacepants.org/conf/XF86Config-4
