This issue comes up alot about people not able to use multiple screens with there 6870, this worked for me.
two files attached in zip folder, a .Kext and instructions.
this worked beautifully for me, im able to use my HDMI, may work for other models of graphics cards too of the 6000 series.
Before you go ahead my setup is
running OSX Lion 10.7.3 (not sure about this working for other versions, but cant see why not)
P8P67 Deluxe
i7 2600k
Graphics 6870
(cant see the motherboard and processor your using effecting the operation of this Kext so not to worry if yours is not the same.
my org.chameleon.boot.plist looks like this as its the top bit you only need.

not the same as the one in the attached just incase you wanted to know.
But hope this helps anybody who is stuck. (it shouldn't bugger anything up, but if it does, not my fault)
