Well, what we tell our customers (and what I use myself) is just to
simply run the "nvidia-settings" GUI; you can dynamically configure any
currently detected monitors using that app, and it'll even offer to
write a proper xorg.conf for you to steal from if necessary. (You'll
need a 97**+ series driver, but it's all there)

When xrandr1.2 support is added in future NVidia versions, it'll be a
squashed issue; joyous day!
