I thought that this might help. I am running unstable. My laptop is a hp/compaq 
nx7400. Here's the obligatory lspci lines for my intel chipset - i945GM:

00:02.0 VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML 
Express Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)
00:02.1 Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile 945GM/GMS/940GML Express 
Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 03)

I am running dual screens - not the same output on both.

Today I did update/upgrade. The intel driver broke (well I am running unstable 
after all, so no surprise). Cntrl-F4 did not have any effect. Whatever was on 
my laptop screen appeared on the crt as well.

X would not run unless I had different PCI ID's on each device:

...
Section "Device"
       Identifier      "Intel0"
       Driver          "i810"
       ...
       BusID           "PCI:0:2:0"
       ...
EndSection

Section "Device"
       Identifier      "Intel1"
       Driver          "i810"
       ...
       BusID           "PCI:0:2:1"
       ...
EndSection
...


After some time I gave up. Went back to the intel driver I was using before 
this:
apt-get install xserver-xorg-video-i810/testing
restart X (/etc/init.d/wdm restart)
And I am back in business.

FYI, I tried the experimental driver (xserver-xorg-video-i810-modesetting) with 
little luck (more oddities there).

The following is my xorg.conf file:
