radeon only has 1 overlay.  It can either be sourced to crtc1 or
crtc2.  You have several options depending on what version of X you
are running.  for xfree86 4.3 or xorg 6.7 you can either disable clone
mode or set the overlayoncrtc2 option. with xorg 6.8.x or newer you
can either disable mergedfb or use the xv attribute XV_SWITCHCRT to
switch which crtc the overlay is sourced to.
