Default dual monitor setup on opensuse 11.0/dell latitude D630

I have a clean install of suse 11.0(kde 3.5) with 2 brand new identical dell 1908FP monitors. My laptop is in a docking station which has 1 analog vga and 1 dvi connector. so I have one monitor using dvi and the other using vga. It defaulted to using the monitor with the dvi connection. I have gone into yast and tried to setup dual head mode but it is not working and i dont know what else to try. It acts like the config is working because when I lock the screen the window is cut off between the two monitors. The problem is the vga monitor just wont initialize for some reason and is black with an amber light. any ideas??
