dual monitors?

i've been messing with this for a couple hours now and can't get it working. a friend gave me another 21" sun monitor, its a way newer model than my current 21" sun. the new one has dual inputs on it, which makes it perfect because i can use it as a dual monitor on my 2 systems attached to my KVM, since the KVM only handles one monitor, yay..............i thought

problem is, the first monitor, that i want as my primary, which is the one i've always had, i can't get it to run 1600x1200 with the dual view setup. it'll only run at 800x600 for some reason. i can't figure it out

here's my xorg.conf, if anyone can help, that would be awesome
