Trying to get my dual video cards to work, agp geforce fx 5600 and a radeon 9250 in the pci slot, seems my bios can only do one at a time but lspci recognizes both so I'm pretty positive X can run both, anyways whenever I try to run X I get a no screens found error, here's my xorg.conf
Code:
Section "Module"

Code:
Parse error on line 106 of section ServerLayout in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf
        The Screen keyword must be followed by an optional number, a screen name
        in quotes, and optional position/layout information.
(EE) Problem parsing the config file
(EE) Error parsing the config file

Fatal server error:
no screens found
(WW) xf86CloseConsole: KDSETMODE failed: Bad file descriptor
(WW) xf86CloseConsole: VT_GETMODE failed: Bad file descriptor

Also got that after the No screens found in my Xorg.0.log
