The Server Layout section looks a little off here is what I have.

Code:
Section "ServerLayout"
        Identifier      "DualHead"
        Screen      0  "Screen0" 0 0
        Screen      1  "Screen1" LeftOf "Screen0"
        InputDevice    "Mouse0" "CorePointer"
        InputDevice    "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard"
#       Option         "Xinerama" "on"
EndSection
Try it with the extra numbers I have and if you want to try it without the Xinerama make sure that you have the line Load "xtrap" in the Section "Module". If you cannot get it to work can you post the /var/log/Xorg.0.log.
