I'm using Xorg with NVIDIA and I'm having no trouble at all. Not to
say it was easy.
What's your Card config?
I doubt mine will apply directly to your setup, since I'm using a dual
head setup, but the card itself is configured as follows:
Section "Device"
Identifier "NV AGP TwinView"
VendorName "nVidia Corporation"
Driver "nvidia"
# update this with the PCI id of your card. Consult the output
# of the 'lspci' command. The BusID is usually optional when
# only using one graphics card.
BusID "PCI:1:0:0"
BoardName "NV34 [GeForce FX 5200]"
# sample twinview setup
Option "TwinView"
Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "31-80"
Option "SecondMonitorVertRefresh" "56-75"
Option "TwinViewOrientation" "RightOf"
Option "MetaModes" "1280x1024,1280x1024; 1024x768,1024x768"
Option "ConnectedMonitor" "crt,crt"
EndSection
It should be fairly easy to figure out which options are related to
the dual setup (all of the "Option" entries, actually). Notice I
don't have any memory info defined. The driver will detect that
automagically:
(--) NVIDIA(0): VideoRAM: 131072 kBytes
This is from /var/log/Xorg.0.log, and it indicates the available
memory was probed.
HTH & Good luck
