Ok, I've been doing some testing today. Here are my findings:

Xorg doesn't actually crash. Other programs that require Xorg will
crash. I've installed debug libraries and did some testing.

First I ran Xorg -config xorg.config.tripple X started up as it should,
all three screens turned on and mouse was working. From a remote
terminal I executed xeyes. Success. Eyes were following my mouse and all
was well. Then I tried to run xterm. Xterm segfaulted and all three
screens became dark and it seemed that Xorg crashed. It didn't, all
screens came back on like nothing has happened.

 /var/log/messages indicated that xterm segfaulted:

xterm[7337]: segfault at 4 ip b7dcdf87 sp bf8d27dc error 4 in
libX11.so.6.2.0[b7da6000+eb000]

I attached a file with full backtrace of xterms crash. Xterm crashed in
libX11.

Then I tried running couple more programs. Xclock died horribly with a
segfault in XftColorAllocValue () from /usr/lib/libXft.so.2. Backtrace
included. In the end I just tried running firefox. It died with a
message:

Xlib:  extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0".

Gdk-ERROR **: unable to find a usable depth
aborting...

Program received signal SIGABRT, Aborted.

This is the same with -180 and -177 nvidia drivers. Programs simply
segfault when you try running them. My setup and config files and logs
are already attached.

It must me an issue with using two different nvidia cards. From a
different series. I'll try to get few more cards to see if I can find a
combination that would work.
