I had a bit of trouble getting Twinview to work on Mandrake 10.2 (worked
fine for 9.1) for a few weeks, so I asked nVidia for help. Luckily they
were able to set me straight.
I had to make some additions to my /etc/X11/xorg.conf file. I added these
lines to my Screen section in the file:
Option "TwinView" "yes"
Option "TwinViewOrientation" "LeftOf"
Option "MetaModes" "1024x768,1024x768"
Subsection "Display"
Viewport 0 0
Depth 24
Modes "1024x768"
EndSubsection
I inserted these after the Identifier, Device, DefaultColorDepth, etc.
entries in that section and before the various "Display" subsections.
You can, of course, change the resolutions in the MetaModes Option and
Modes entry in the display subsection to any resolution that is supported
by your monitor, as well as alter the orientation depending on whether
your primary monitor is on the left or right side.
