You'll need all the DRI stuff from
people.debian.org/~adaenzer/dri-trunk-sid, there is plenty of stuff on
this in the archives etc.
Attached is my XF86Config and a little startx script I use which works
well for me on the same hardware as you. I'm not a great fan of
xinerama so I haven't set that up at all. I hope it is helpful.
