Bug Description
Binary package hint: xserver-xorg
I am using a dual screen layout: 1600x1200 TFT connected to Intel Q965 integrated graphics and 1280x720 DLP projector connected to ATI Radeon 9250 PCI. Both displays work individually, but using them at the same time makes Xorg crash on startup.
startx -- -layout tft is OK
startx -- -layout dlp is OK
startx -- -layout dual CRASHES
At the end of Xorg.0.log it says:
Backtrace:

I am using Ubuntu gutsy. Package versions:

A similar layout with R9250 AGP & R9250 PCI worked fine on feisty.

Seems that this happens also with other dual screen configurations.
When using only the intel chipset backtrace is longer:
