You are not enabling TwinView through the X settings. When you updated nvidia-utils, you must have lost the dynamic settings set by NV-CONTROL X extension.

Launch nvidia-settings and "reconfigure" TwinView.  Alternately, you can set it up in the 20-nvidia.conf file.  Pro's, Con's, and how to do it is within the Nvidia Driver "Readme" file as linked below directly to the TwinView section:

I have 20-nvidia.conf file ... but nvidia-utils doesn't show my television anymore.

I don't understand what I to do
