Ok. This is expected behaviour here. SaX2 does not create a dualhead
configuration for nv driver, since this driver simply does not support a
dualhead configuration. During the nvidia driver installation only the driver
name in xorg.conf is replaced. Besides from this the xorg.conf is not touched.
==> no Dualhead configuration afterwards. When running "sax2 -r" manually
after
nvidia driver installation SaX2 creates a dualhead configuration, since this
driver does support a dualhead configuration.

I can't see a regression here.


But this is not pre 100.14.19 behavior. Nvidia Drivers prior to 100.14.19
created default clone for external monitors. I don't believe this to be an Xorg
issue, but a Nvidia binary driver change issue.
