Well, Gnome, sawfish, enlightenment, etc won't work if I have the Nvidia
driver on the main head either.

Dropping back to XF86's nv driver and removing the nvidia glx (running
nv w/ the NVidia glx installed breaks =p) gets everything working fine
and dandy.

I'd love to run the accellerated Nvidia drivers but for now having extra
screen real estate is more important.

Of course VMware just crashed saying it doesn't know how to handle a
3000x2400 X display. heh.
