I dunno... I finally gave up on classic ximerama with this card and with 
the help of a user on freenode:#xorg I got the desktop I had been 
wanting using this config:

Section "Device"
         Identifier  "Videocard0"
         Driver      "radeon"
         VendorName  "ATI"
         BoardName   "ATI Radeon 9600"
         BusID       "PCI:1:0:0"
         Option "MergedFB" "True"
         Option "CRT2HSync" "30-70"
         Option "CRT2VRefresh" "50-160"
         Option "MonitorLayout" "CRT,CRT"
         Option "OverlayOnCRTC2" "true"
          Option "MetaModes" "1280x1024-1280x1024"
         Option "CRT2Position" "RightOf"
EndSection
