Thank you for your response, but I don't understand. You are suggesting
that I *should* use the NVidia closed source driver? That is what I am
using. "nvidia" is the closed source one. If I choose the XFree "nv"
driver, then TwinView is not available.
I commented out the DRI line and restarted X, there was no change in result.

This tool produces the same configuration that I already have with
respect to TwinView.
