Hello

here is how I set my dual monitor nvidia card
  1.. sudo envyng-gtk (you may need to install it sudo apt-get install envyng-gtk )
1.      Choose nvidia, install

2.      OK, at the Reboot dialog

  2.. login
  3.. sudo nvidia-settings
1.      X server display configuration

2.      Click on disabled monitor's box

3.      Configure...

1.      Twinview

4.      Set RightOf or LeftOf according to monitor positions

5.      Don't panic by the way the monitors are set up - The final setup will be after logout login

6.      Save to X configuration

  4.. Logout & login agian
good luck
Shahar

  Hi, does anyone on here know or a update planned for nvidia drivers for 
  dual monitors/cards on Ubuntu..
  I'm tired of being in vista now i have my second screen.. Best i could 
  get was two X screens.and the other screen does nothing. I was hoping of 
  having Compiz running.. I know some people (masterminds) can get their 
  Xorg.conf set-up right.


  cheers
