I revisited this issue recently, and discovered that I have to use the
nvidia-settings program to get dual screen going with the proprietary
display driver, since xrandr doesn't work.  So, once I discovered that,
I simply configured my 2nd display as a "Separate X Screen" (in the
"Configure" popup) and chose "Enable Xinerama".  Then dual monitors is
finally working for me with the nvidia graphics card (and best drivers)
enabled.
