I have Fedora 8 running dual head on the following setup:
1. NVidia GeForce FX5200 on AGP slot
2. ATI Radeo 9200 Pro on PCI slot using one of its two head outputs.

Works great.

Tried fresh install of Fedora 10 two day ago. Could not get the AGP card to run. Got some video going on the PCI card but it was not real stable.

Finally gave up and used Acronis to recover the last backup from DVD and put Fedora 8 back on.
Had a bit of trouble with Mandriva 2009 on that system and put it on an old single head system with a bit of work. Seems like AGP and these newer distros are not getting along well. Maybe someday I can buy some newer hardware.
