I'm not a great XFree86 person but I know my way around XFree86. In running dual outputs in Linux you should use Xinerama.

http://www.tldp.org/HOWTO/Xinerama-HOWTO/

This was very useful for me to get multi-monitors and TV output to work.

Oh Yeah there is something wrong on this line.

Modify /etc/X11/XF86Config-4, you must substitute 1024x768 with 1280x1024 if your resolution is 1280x1024.

Section "Device"

BoardName "NVIDIA GeForce2 DDR (generic)"

Option "TwinView" "True"

Option "MetaModes" "1024x768,640x480; 640x480,640x480"
EndSection

Note that if you use (Mandrake 9.1 XFree4.3). You cannot switch to 640x480 by pressing control-alt-+.
It's a bug in XFree86 4.3
