the console output

I have a laptop with a internal screen (LPL), and I have a TV  attached via
VGA. 
When I have both screens active in twinview, starcraft2 does not start.

I use nvidia Xserver settings to setup my screens like this:

Model: LPL (dfp-0 on GPU)
Configuration: twinview
Resolution: 1440x900 Auto
position Absolute +0+0
[x] make this screen primary the the X screen
Model: Philips PHI32PFL3605
Configuration: twinview
Resolution: 1680x1050 Auto
Position: absolute +1440+0
[ ] make this screen primary the the X screen

Now I start starcraft2 from a terminal located on the TV.
Starcraft 2 crashes, and I can send a crash report to blizzard. I can't move my
cursor to the TV anymore, the mousecursor stops at the edge of my internal
screen. At the edge of the TV I can see about half of the cursor

Found this thread here: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=602641
Open up a console and type 'regedit'. Then go to
HKEY_current_user > software > wine > X11 driver

Right click in the white area and select "New > String Value". Type in
"UseXRandR" without the quotes and hit enter. Then double click what you just
made and type 'N'. Quit regedit and start your game up. It should work in full
screen.

I added the registry value, and resetted my screens by re-applying the settings
in Nvidia Xserver settings. Unfortunately the results are the same as the above
post.

Now I disable the internal screen of my laptop, so I get the following settings
in Nvidia X server settings:

Model: LPL (dfp-0 on GPU)
Configuration: twinview
Resolution: Off Auto
position Absolute +0+0
[x] make this screen primary the the X screen
Model: Philips PHI32PFL3605
Configuration: twinview
Resolution: 1680x1050 Auto
Position: absolute +1440+0
[ ] make this screen primary the the X screen

Now I start the game again. now the game works perfectly.

now I enable only the internal screen of my laptop, so I get the following
settings
in Nvidia X server settings:

Model: Philips PHI32PFL3605
Configuration: twinview
Resolution: Off Auto
Position: absolute +1440+0
[ ] make this screen primary the the X screen

Now I start the game. The game crashes. Presumably because it's still setup for
1680x1050, and the internal screen has a lower resolution

Indeed. i have enabled only my TV, started the game, set the resolution in-game
to 1440x900, exited the game, enabled only my laptop screen, and started the
game again. Now the game starts without problems.

Now I know the game runs fine on both resolutions, but the game does not run
when both screens are enabled.

Best regards,
Cedric

What's your output of xrandr?  Nvidia's proprietary driver uses their own tools
to update your screen resolution and will give X an incomplete set of
resolutions to choose from, breaking any game that relies on choosing the best
resolution from what's available.

For example, here's the information any game can use after I use nvidia's x
configuration tools to setup two screens on twinview:

$ xrandr 
xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default
Screen 0: minimum 3520 x 1080, current 3520 x 1080, maximum 3520 x 1080
default connected 3520x1080+0+0 0mm x 0mm
   3520x1080      50.0*

If you actually have a list of resolutions to use, then we have a real bug on
our hands.  If not, you're best off using a virtual desktop.
