I do not understand fully your request. The KVM will share kbd and
mouse between 2 computers. But what are you trying to do with the 2
monitors, connected to one of them on the dual head?

If you just need to display one and the same thing from one machine on
both monitors - then put the nvidia driver in a clone mode, and you
are done.

Btw, if you have 2 computers, each with it's own monitor, you can try
Synergy (http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/) to share the kbd and mouse
over the network. That's what I use to control my mythtv machine if I
need kbd and mouse for it.
