I had a difficult time getting my twinview settings set up correctly
for my laptop, until I emerged nvidia-settings, and used it to
configure it just right - it makes it fairly simple to do - I'd
suggest just giving that a try. You can get it set up just right, then
either have the nvidia-settings application save the configuration to
your xorg.conf file, or just show you what that xorg.conf file would
look like, so you can cut and paste.

HTH-
