I know.  that's what I'm trying to help you set up.  can you post your
xorg log when you try the config I just sent?   BTW, is this a laptop
or a desktop card?
I think the problem is you need to swap the head configs.  the current
driver uses crtc1 for the lcd and crtc2 for the crt.  so the lcd needs
to be screen 0 and the crt needs to be screen 1.

try replacing your screen sections with these:

  Section "Screen"
          Identifier "Screen1"
          Device     "Card1"
         Monitor    "CRT"
       DefaultDepth    24
          SubSection "Display"
                  Modes "1600x1200" "1024x768"
 "800x600" "640x480"
                 Depth     24
          EndSubSection
  EndSection

  Section "Screen"
          Identifier "Screen0"
          Device     "Card0"
          Monitor    "LCD"
        DefaultDepth   24
          SubSection "Display"
                  Modes "1024x768" "800x600" "640x480"
                  Depth     24
          EndSubSection
  EndSection
