Is there any way to have 1280x800 on the lcd and (simultaneously) 1280

First, make sure you have xinerama in USE.  If not, add it, and do an
"emerge --newuse world".  Xinerama is the X extension that lets
applications know about multiple monitors, so that popups and font
sizes work out correctly.

I don't have an ATI graphics chip any more, but based on a thread [1]
on the rage3d forums, I believe you'll need the following lines in
your Device section:

       Option      "MerdgedFB" "true"
       Option       "CRT2HSync" "30.0-90.0"
       Option      "CRT2VRefresh" "60-100"
       Option      "CRT2Position" "RightOf"
       Option      "MetaModes" "1280x800+1280x1024"
       Option       "MergedXinerama" "on"
       Option       "MergedNonRectangular" "on"
       Option       "MergedXineramaCRT2IsScreen0" "false"

HTH,
