On my geforce dual monitor card, i had to add to the xorg.conf file
stuff like the following:
Section "ServerLayout"
Screen 0 "LeftScreen" 0 0
Screen 1 "RightScreen" RightOf "LeftScreen"
...
and
Section "Device"
Identifier "GeForce FX5700 1"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Screen 0
...
Section "Device"
Identifier "GeForce FX5700 2"
Driver "nvidia"
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
Screen 1
...
with a seperate screen section for each head, like
Section "Screen"
Identifier "LeftScreen"
Device "GeForce FX5700 1"
...
and
Section "Screen"
Identifier "RightScreen"
Device "GeForce FX5700 2"
...
The gentoo wiki page HOWTO Dual Monitors:
http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Dual_Monitors
is probably a good read.
