external monitor with nvidia Go7200

Hi,

I am playing with my xorg video settings to make the external monitor showing the same desktop as the laptop monitor.

With the utility nvidia-settings I am able now to have a big destop shared by the external and internal monitor (like in Xinerama) and two separate desktops, one each monitor, but still I couldn't understand how to obtain the two monitors showing the same thing sad

I attach herebelow my xorg.conf for reference:
