I have had much better luck with my dual-head setup running:
X -configure
as root than using system-config-display. X -configure will create a
file called xorg.conf.new in /root, and you can test it by running the
command:
X -config /root/xorg.conf.new
to make sure that both monitors come up. Now in my case, I have two
separate video cards. Not sure how it will do with one card with
multiple out.

Like Thomas, X -configure worked a lot better for dual head for me also.
System-config-display was not very good as it only got 800x600 for one
of the heads. X -configure allowed the higher resolution though it
picked the nouveau driver which did not work. I had to edit it to nv
which worked.
