Dual monitors and Xinerama

I have been trying to get dual monitors working following the
directions of Dennis Baker
(http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Xinerama-HOWTO/). Running X -configure
from the console produces an 'XF86Config.new' file that looks very
reasonable. The two monitor cards (Rage 128 and Radeon 7000) are
correctly recognized and the file fairly closely resembles the one
shown at the end of Baker's article. But using the new file as
XF86Config results in a second monitor with wide vertical stripes and
nothing else.
Any tips, suggestions or speculation would be very welcome.
