Don't know about dual-head, and don't trust fedora kmod, a commodity to workaround the rebuilding of nvidia.ko module at kernel change i think.On Sat, May 29, 2010 at 06:25, Steven P.

After some Googling I found out I had to blacklist the nouveau driver. After I solved that, I had no more problems whatsoever.
I do as in debian, and having problems with nouveau too:
download nvidia binary and chmod +x,
then
1) switch to console (ctrl+alt+F2) and login as root.
1b) `initctl stop prefdm' to bring down graphical environment
1c) rmmod -fv nouveau
2) yum install kernel-headers (or kernel-PAE-devel, don't remember; pay attention to PAE or not-pae according to your system)
3) cd to nvidia binary directory
3b) `./NVIDIA...'
3c) hope all go well
4) hack /etc/X11/xorg.conf trought nvidia-xconfig and with nano usually Option "NoLogo" "true" and Option "DPI" "72x72" or something
5) initctl start prefdm
That's to repeat whenever a kernel upgrade happen, as booting bring you a black screen you can ctrl+alt+F2
Actually a bit unpractical, but that is: closed driver, focus on backstage.
