2 Cards: How to use XFree86 on one & framebuffer on other

I have a machine with 2 graphics cards (SiS 630 & ATI
Radeon). I would like to run a regular XFree86 server
on one card, but use the framebuffer support on the
other card (I don't care which card I use for which).

I've compiled a 2.6.7 kernel with framebuffer support
for both cards. The kernel automatically activates
framebuffer support for both.

I've tried compiling support for the Radeon
framebuffer, but not for the SiS framebuffer. When I
run that kernel, frame buffering support is not
activated for either card.

Is this possible to do? If yes, how?

:)
