Bryce, I still have this issue but haven't checked on the bug report status in a long time...

good news: as I suspected the swiss tv problem is not connected to this issue. swiss tv launched a new video portal today and now the problem I experienced is gone (nothing else changed since yesterday..). but open office splash screen problem and screenshot problem remain. -- nvidia twinview - dialogue centering and fullscreen media players https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300870 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 300870] Re: nvidia twinview - dialogue centering and fullscreen media players
more information about the bug I reported in post #22: in my normal work environment the problem doesn't exist - but it happens when I boot the computer without it being connected to the external screen. the desktop still appears to be set two screens wide, but not for everything... for example saving something to the desktop - the icon goes to the invisible part of the desktop (left, external screen - if it would be connected) I can only see it after re-booting with the external screen. on the other hand windows cannot be moved or expanded into that area when the external screen is not connected. and as mentioned in post #22 screenshots (better name could be window-shots) don't work properly when the computer was booted without the external screen being connected. -- nvidia twinview - dialogue centering and fullscreen media players https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300870 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 300870] Re: nvidia twinview - dialogue centering and fullscreen media players
not sure if it's related to this driver update - but today I noticed that I cannot use print screen anymore. Alt+PrtSc opens the print screen dialog normally, but the actual print screen only shows the mouse icon - otherwise it is just black. -- nvidia twinview - dialogue centering and fullscreen media players https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300870 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

nubix, I would say that your issue is related to a different bug. I tested ALT+PrtScr on my machine and did experience this problem.

as previously stated, I have reason to believe that I have a different problem. anyway: I installed the 6 .deb's for i386 and NVIDIA X Server Settings now states Driver Version 185.18.14. no change on the two issues I have. -- nvidia twinview - dialogue centering and fullscreen media players https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/300870 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers-180 in ubuntu. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I've posted a new version of the -nvidia driver to our xorg-edgers PPA, would you mind testing it either on Jaunty or Karmic and see if it resolves this bug?
