Hello,
On my machine I have connected vga monitor and hdmi tv with single graphic card. TV screen is used mostly for Kodi multimedia center. both displays have its own Xscreen in nvidia-settings. Only with this settings I dont get video tearing.This is worked perfectly on ubuntu 14.10, but on latest 15.04 with same settings TV displays only black screen with "X" cursor and Kodi is not showing. Is there somme fix or other way to get tv to work as secondary monitor?

xorg.conf:
