in xorg.conf serverlayout section:
Disable Xinerama if u have it enabled, it wont work with it. (which i hope nvidia will add support for)
Enable RandR
Code:

Option "Xinerama" "0"
Option "RandR" "1"

in xorg.conf device section:
enable twinview
set twinvieworientation to above (or below)
enable randrrotation
Code:

Option "TwinView" "1"
Option "TwinViewOrientation" "Above"
Option "RandRRotation" "1"


startup x, and use:
xrandr -o left (or right) in a terminal.

have fun!
