The "nv" driver that comes with XFree86 does not support the
second head on NVIDIA cards. You can only use the second head
if you are using NVIDIA's binary Linux drivers. It is not configured
the way other dual-head cards, like Matrox, are configured.
Read the documentation that comes with the drivers - look for
the section on TwinView(TM).
