Two nvidia cards using the binary nvidia driver is the only

that is quirky though, as TwinView is (unsurprisingly) limited to 2

What about two video cards from different manufacturers? IIRC this
used
to be the best way to get dual head, so it should[1] work for more
than
2, right? :)
Um... Did you miss the part where I said intel + (radeon | nvidia)
didn't work? :)
Granted, the !intel part being a pcie card in a laptop docking station
may have thrown a wrench in the works.
Kernel modesetting is also likely complicating things, but Dave Airlie
says that should be mostly worked out soon by way of the new vga-arb
code, iirc...
