Ok. Our code is actually working with dual head on the NVIDIA cards 
provided that the BIOS has posted both heads to run in clone mode. On 
some cards the BIOS does not post the second head and only one head comes 
up, and the riva_hw.c module is not able to initialise the second head. I 
guess we are stuck in that case ;-)
