I have added your PPA and the upgraded the following packages via synaptic from version 180.44 to 185.18.14: nvidia-180-kernel-source nvidia-180-libvdpau nvidia-180-modaliases nvidia-glx-180
I then re-booted, altered my nvidia-settings to "separate X screen" and logged out and in again. The bug remains. The second screen shows only blackness with a mouse pointer on it. Instead of one seamless pointer moving over the 2 screens I have two pointers (one on each screen) and when I move from one screen to another the pointer on the old screen just freezes till I come back. When I log out, the second screen briefly shows my wallpaper. Also there appears to be a regression with this new driver. Ctrl-Alt-F1 - Ctrl-Alt-F6 VTs are now blank screens as well (actually on my second attempt at testing this I managed to get white flashy graphical corruption over both monitors on all VTs (even though the 2nd monitor wasn't enabled) and I had to reboot via the terminal (which works just fine even when you can't actually see it ;-D ). I'm going to downgrade back to 180.44 for the time being.
