You do not use the NVidia closed source driver but the nvidia module from XFree. I am sure twinview is only supported / a feature by the NVidia driver. Be sure do deactivate DRI running the nv driver (follow the instructions in the readme on nvidia.com).

Thank you for your response, but I don't understand. You are suggesting that I *should* use the NVidia closed source driver? That is what I am using. "nvidia" is the closed source one. If I choose the XFree "nv" driver, then TwinView is not available.

I commented out the DRI line and restarted X, there was no change in result.


Maybe http://yanc.sourceforge.net/ is helpful for you.




This tool produces the same configuration that I already have with respect to TwinView.
