Status in “xserver-xorg-video-nouveau” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Unable to set up 2 separate X screens on 12.04 (this works on 10.04). What I did: fresh install of Ubuntu 64bits. Then upgraded. Then try to set up 2 separate X screens (2 monitors). It didn't work on nouveau, nvidia-current, nvidia (post release updates), and nvidia- experimental-310. First the 2nd monitor is complete blank, with an X as a mouse cursor (X Windows default?). 'killall nautilus' shows the default background, but no top panel, no launcher, and same mouse cursor. Launching any instance of nautilus blanks the screen again. unning 'DISPLAY=:0.1 compiz --replace' offers a little improvement: top panel appears, as the unity launcher. However, no windows decorations and all windows open stick to the upper left corner. They can't be moved. After restarting the machine all back to zero.
