Choosing A Webhost:
A web hosting service is a type of Internet hosting service that allows individuals and organizations to provide their own website accessible via the World Wide Web. Web hosts are companies that provide space on a server they own for use by their clients as well as providing Internet connectivity, typically in a data center. Web hosts can also provide data center space and connectivity to the Internet for servers they do not own to be located in their data center, called colocation. more...

Hmm... Two cards of different makes and Xinerama - Not something I've
had much contact/dealings with I have to say. One thing that did strike
me though is that you make no use of 'Int10', thus all POSTing for the
second card is currently being done through the nvidia kernel module.
Could be a point of conflict/problems or maybe not, however you may wish
to look at 'Int10' usage or ask around about this e.g. on the forums
linked to from nvidia's GNU/Linux driver page.
