What I don't understand in your xorg.conf:

Section "Monitor"
  You do not indicate HorizSync nor VertRefresh frequencies

Section "ServerLayout"
  Identifier should be: "Multihead layout"

  You should add:
  Option         "Xinerama" "on"


Section "Device"
You write: BusID  "PCI:0:2:0"

and in your log file it is noted that BusID is PCI:0:2:1? You can 
confirm this using lspci and write:

BusID  "PCI:0:2:1:" (note the trailing ":")

Hope this help.
