Public bug reported:
On a MacBookPro 5,1 and a clean install of Karmic, 64-bit the steps to
repeat are:
System > Administration > NVIDIA X Settings > X Server Display
Configuration > (Set things for external LCD... ) > Apply > Save to X
Configuration File
will result in:
Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!
The same when launching from the terminal as a superuser. In the past
(under Jaunty 64-bit, at least) the superuser "method" was working.
Output of:
[1] uname - a: Linux vertical 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16
14:05:01 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[2] cat /proc/version_signature, [3] dmesg and [4] sudo lspci -vnvn (will be)
attached as files.
