Dual Head ATI 3D Acceleration

Any ideas on how to get 3D acceleration working with dual head?

When I run one monitor and look at the fireglcontrolpanel the ATI
proprietary drivers are being used. When I set up dual-head and run
fireglcontrolpanel, the basic Mesa drivers are being used.

Manually editing the xorg.conf file leads to disaster.

How can I get firegl to recognize the proprietary drivers in dual head
mode?

I'm running Suse10 with ATI Radeon X300.

Thanks,
Dave
