If 6.6.193 does not work for you, you should either revert to the old 6.6.3 or upgrade to new 6.7.194 in experimental. The 6.6.x branch is dead anyway, so this exact problem won't be fixed. The 6.7.x branch contains RandR 1.2 which provides dynamic configuration of multiple heads. You'll have to update your xorg.cong (remove MonitorLayout, Xinerama, and use single Monitor/Screen/Device sections) and try the xrandr command to use RandR 1.2.
