Then TwinView is not set up properly.  When TwinView is working, you only need 
one Screen value in the "ServerLayout" section.  With TwinView the "Device" 
section handles the layout of the separate monitors.  Without TwinView the 
"ServerLayout" section handles the layout of the separate monitors.

do not go in the "Screen" section.  They go in the "Device" section.  Correct 
this should bring your second monitor back to life.
