Here is my xorg.conf

Everything was working fine on the xf86-video-ati drivers, but I want better 3D acceleration.

one screen is 1680x1050, and the other is 1440x900.

its probably because there was some chatter that you have to have a patched xorg-server since xorg upgraded to 1.8. Go through the AMD/ATI Bar and Grill thread (last few pages) to see if a solution is available. But that could be old news.

Which version of catalyst drivers are you using?

I have installed the patched Xorg, and it is still doing it. Im using version 10.06 from AUR.
