Bug#612956: nvidia-glx requires xorg-video-abi-8.0 but new xserver-xorg-core, provides xorg-video-abi-8
The pre-release drivers fixed my dependency problems, but I can't get multi-head to work with them. I'm using a single card to drive 2 monitors, and as long as I have a Screen 0 or Screen 1 in either device section, xorg bombs out saying screen 0 deleted because a matching config section couldn't be found. I've verified my settings, and that's the only thing that makes a difference. If I remove the Screen options, I can only bring up a single monitor. -- Gary Kramlich g...@reaperworld.com -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

That's pretty much what mine looks like, except that I'm in a disjoint setup. No xinerama/dualview. It was working under xorg 1.7 btw, although it somehow magically got removed, but that's outside of this scope. I can post my config, but I think I might try adding the pre-release as a mirror and pull in all the suggests and recommends. I just pulled down the packages I needed to cover dependencies and installed them manually. -- Gary Kramlich -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.

What's going to be more run is that my workstation at home is a trimonitor setup, same problem, so as long as I don't exit X i'll be fine for now :) Anyways, I just purged everything I installed manually and am reinstalling from the repo now.

That sounds somewhat similar to 604915, although that one was with xinerama. I have no idea about a cause though, or whether it's nvidia-specific.

This needs to be fixed in the nvidia packages, the new pre-release packages should fix this. PS: why does nvidia-glx conflict with itself in the Conflicts: line above? i know it's been in the package since at least 195.36.31 without causing problems, but it seems an odd conflict to have. It's a packaging issue and generated by some variable substitutions - I want to use packaging scripts with minimal differences for the current and all the legacy packages to simplify merging changes. Package: self Provides: self Conflicts: self works fine and is quite common with real packages that are also virtual packages. 'aptitude why-not nvidia-glx' says that that is the problem (it's wrong, the problem is the missing dependancy xorg-video-abi-8.0). # aptitude why-not nvidia-glx ih nvidia-glx Conflicts nvidia-glx Eventually you should report that as an aptitude bug.
