Twinview with separate desktops


I am running Suse 10rc1. My video card is an nVidia GeForce FX5700 Ultra 128Mb. I have enabled twinview, and my desktop now spans across two monitors. However, i wish to have a separate desktop on each monitor. Here is my xorg.conf file. What must i do to achieve two separate desktops?
