Trond,

I'm not exactly sure how to go back to not using the nvidia driver and select the xorg one. I do know that I wasn't able to use both monitors with the xorg driver, but I'm willing to try that to isolate the problem.

If memory serves, you change your xorg.conf's "Device" section's "Driver" entry to read:
"nv"
instead of
"nvidia",

although I would consult the xorg documentation/your distribution's documentation (and back up your working xorg.conf) for specific details. (Your boot sequence may also automatically load the nvidia module, again, consult your distribution's documentation for details.)

Cheers/hope this helps,
dcw
