As Nat mentioned, this *is* a bug. It's a bug with the NVIDIA drivers, though, not Ubuntu. Therefore, it should stick around until NVIDIA fixes it with the restricted, closed source drivers. Otherwise, we should add a * feature* that automatically disables TwinView in the x config file by default (ie: a GUI setting in Ubuntu). Then for those few using TwinView, then can enable it and everyone is happy.
