I had a similar setup a year ago and discovered that I couldnt use a s3 virge card alongside my nvidia card (both in linux and in windows), maybe its just a config problem but keep in mind that it could be a technical issue

[MAJOR-EDIT]

Ok, i've altered my xorg.conf. and got it working almost 100% as i want to.

Both screens fires up WMs on em but the mouse + kb only reaches the :0.0 and not :0.1 (S3 Virge)

Any solution to my problem there?, i tried a ugly quick and dirty fix with x2x but it had the problem if i moved the mouse to :0.1 and then tried to goto the right corner to go back to :0.0 it was stuck on :0.1 and had to kill X and start it up again to goto :0.0 again
