dual monitor setup help

[sl4nted]

I recently had HD issues and was forced to buy a new one and re-install suse 10.1
my system was working perfectly before. But I set it up awhile ago and can't remember how I got it to work. I was to setup dual monitor, and have a geforce2 agp card and a s3 virge PCI card. I can get each monitor/card combo to work by itself, but when I try to combine them everything went a mess. so I tryed X -configure which spat out a config file which at first looked like it would work, but then just froze.

I know this will work, because it worked great in the past, but like I said I have no clue how I set it up the first time. I think I just stumbled on a fix accidently last time. Any help is appreciated.
