see one of the xinerama/dualhead howtos:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors

something along the lines of this:

Section "Device"
    Identifier "device0"
    VendorName "ATI"
    BoardName "ATI Radeon"
    Driver "radeon"
    BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
    Screen 0
EndSection

Section "Device"
    Identifier "device1"
    BoardName "ATI Radeon"
    Driver "radeon"
    BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
    Screen 1
EndSection
