So you can change your xorg.conf to use xrandr ("standard" xorg
config) instead of twinview (nvidia-specific config) to setup your
dual screen at boot.

Parts of my configuration as an example for an ATI card with xrandr :

Section "Device"
        Identifier      "ATI"
        Driver          "radeon"
        Option          "monitor-DVI-0"
        Option          "monitor-DisplayPort-0"
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "HP-right" # this one is connected on "DVI-0"
as reported by xrandr
        Option          "PreferredMode" "1600x900"
        Option          "TargetRefresh" "60"
        Option          "RightOf"       "DisplayPort-0"
        DisplaySize     542 305 # I like 75 DPI
EndSection
Section "Monitor"
        Identifier      "HP-left" # this one is connected on "DisplayPort-0"
        Option          "PreferredMode" "1600x900"
        Option          "TargetRefresh" "60"
        Option          "Primary"       "true"
        DisplaySize     542 305 # 75 DPI
EndSection
Section "Screen"
        Identifier      "Screen"
        Device          "ATI"
        SubSection "Display"
                Virtual         3200 1600 # to handle compositing on
the two screens, rotated or not
        EndSubSection
EndSection
