Thanks for your answer, i will try if i can get it working like this but randr doesn't seem to work on the secondary device. I have heard that nvidia cards doesn't support randr 1.2 so i will give it a try with randr disabled in my configuration. One thing is that i want the two screens (where i can move between with the mouse) avaialable not only one. I would also prefer a solution which works with the xorg configuration file.
