Default Re: Can't detect second monitor [ATI HD 3870, dual-head, sax

Forget using sax2 with proprietary driver. Use 'aticonfig' utility instead.

Good Gentoo-based HOW TO. See proprietary driver section.

With the second display plugged in, see what 'xrandr' command reports. It should detect second display automatically.
I can't offer any further specific advice, but you may need to google for more info. Good luck.
