      Hi,

      I changed my screens setting to 1 it still did not work. this is 
what i got when i grep searched /var/log/Xorg.0.log:

           (EE) NV(0): No vailid initial configuration found
           (EE) Screen(s) found, but none have a usable configuration

      I 'm beginning to suspect that xorg does not have timings for some 
monitors when set to nv,  because vesa driver works with  this xorg.conf 
file.
      I think if possible the nv driver should be replaced for  nouveau
