Have you checked out the Nvidia readme? Check it out at
ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/1.0-7174/README.txt .
You're probably interested in the parts about Twinview. I believe you
can also run a different x server on the two displays.
The twinview stuff is fairly trivial to configure if you read the
documentation.
As an example, here's part of my config. I am no longer using the
tvout, so things are commented.
Section "Device"
Identifier "NForce2"
Driver "nvidia"
# Option "NvAGP" "1"
# Option "TwinView"
# Option "TwinViewOrientation" "Clone"
# Option "SecondMonitorHorizSync" "30-50"
