How to clone across video cards?

I'm running Ubuntu Natty with one Quadro FX 1700 and one Quadro FX 570.

With previous versions of Ubuntu and the NVidia drivers, I was able to clone the output from one monitor to all the others -- and I believe I was able to do it solely with the NVidia X Server Settings graphical app.

IIRC, when I configured TwinView I believe I was able to select monitors from the other GPU. However with 270.41.06 I've been unable to find any settings that do this, either using the NVidia app or by manually editing xorg.conf.

Any help with configuration would be appreciated.
