I had this problem with an HP DC7700 and ADD2 DVI cards, when I used the
"i810" driver in xorg.conf.
Changing the driver to "intel" resolved the issues 100%. (I was using
Fedora 7 Test 3, I'm not sure if the "intel" driver is packaged for
earlier FC or RHEL versions.) Anyway, you need the "modesetting" intel
driver.
