Well, mine is a desktop with dual monitors that are always connected.  I simply used "nvidia-settings" to generate the xorg.conf.

That being said, Dave Ulrick had the better solution of editing 'GreeterScreen' in /etc/kde/kdm/kdmrc.  I have tested it an needed to set it to -2 to get the desired result and have revert to the standard, mostly empty, xorg.conf.
