Default How to change Linux dual-head screen numbers?

I've got a dual-head setup working under Linux with a 6200A,
but no matter what I try, the CRT connected to the VGA
connector is screen 0.

Adding "Screen 0" or "Screen 1" options to the Device section
has no effect at all, and changing the screen numbers in the
ServerLayout doesn't work either. The :0.0 screen always ends
up assigned to the VGA connector, and :0.1 to the DVI connector.

How do I get the DVI output to be screen 0?
