I have found the same problem exists with other cards. ie I810 on board and a Nvidia MX440 pci.
It all comes down to the Xserver being unable to initialise the second video card, and the bios not wanting to.
I am currently running 2.6.16-1-686. I am running with both cards, thou I had to fiddle a bit.
The procedure I used was;
start up and only go to run level 1
load the sisfb module.
It complains that the sis bios is not initialised and it can't do that.
Run X and it all comes up fine.
Kill X
go to Run level 2, and I'm away laughing.
I will try a different kernel version. I currently have available 2.6.14-2-386 and 2.6.14-2-686.
I can also install from stable version 2.6.8-2-686
Wish me luck.
Fran.

Which kernel you're using ? If you've a previous kernel (2.6.12, .13, .14) could you reboot with each old one and test, please? The point is that i reproduced this bug using Xorg 7 and 2.6.15, in other distribution, downgrading to 2.6.12 worked around the bug. I don't know about 2.6.13 and 2.6.14.
