i have personally set up a machine with 8 screens (4 dual head hards)
with current nvidia hardware. what you are after is achievable!

That's what I keep reading - all very achievable. In fact with this
machine I specifically got nvidia hardware instead of ati cause my
reading indicated nvidia had better support in this area. So far my
experience tells me ati was better.
In any case, I've tried the nvidia-settings, which seemed to be the way
but it refuses to acknowledge the fact that I am already using the
nvidia driver (as opposed to nv). Every time I try and open it, it spits
up the message "You do not appear to be using the NVIDIA X driver.
Please edit your X configuration.....and restart the X Server",
regardless of whether nv or nvidia is in the xorg.conf file. Which
basically means I've got to resort to manual method.
