Update2:

I tried connecting the cable for the 17" monitor and ran my usual command of xrander to get dual monitors:

<QUOTE>
xrandr --output DVI-0 --right-of DVI-1 --auto

Good news, it actually setup dual displays with extended desktop as it usually did ...

 ... but the computer was frozen. I rebooted and disconnected the 17" monitor's cable again. :(

xrandr gives the following - taunting me:

So, in my estimation, it's definitely a radeon driver issue and not Xorg.
