Ubuntu,

just to help people trying to find the same:
look in system/help/hardware to install more performant drivers,
http://pwp.netcabo.pt/0150048402/linux/Multiple_Nvidia_Multiple_Head.html ,
rebooting helps, 
ubuntu/nvidia chooses a different primary screen than win XP (so if u
have the other screen turned off..),
this is my current xorg.conf:

# /etc/X11/xorg.conf (xorg X Window System server configuration file)
#
# This file was generated by dexconf, the Debian X Configuration tool,
using
# values from the debconf database.
#
# Edit this file with caution, and see the /etc/X11/xorg.conf manual
page.
# (Type "man /etc/X11/xorg.conf" at the shell prompt.)
#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades
*only*
# if it has not been modified since the last upgrade of the xserver-xorg
# package.
#
# If you have edited this file but would like it to be automatically
updated
# again, run the following command:
#   sudo dpkg-reconfigure -phigh xserver-xorg
