I got my dual monitor setup working with nvidia this morning.

I used the current kmod packages from livna.

I tried using the nvidia-xconfig utility.   For some reason the file it
generated wouldn't run.   I didn't spend much time looking into it.   I
suspect it had to do with the fact that it generated 2 "screen0"
elements.   I am using a laptop and a monitor and I think that confuses
it. 

What did work, however, is the tried and true xorg.conf that I hand
wrote way back in fc3.  I copied it into the current xorg.conf file and
now I have dual monitors again.
