Can confirm same problem in 11.10 Ocelot ... on a very minimalist
install, nvidia-settings complains to stderr when trying to save
xorg.conf:
sh: pkg-config: not found
Traceback (most recent call last):
File /usr/share/screen-resolution-extra/nvidia-polkit.py, line 20, in
module
The solution proposed by Luiz Carlos works fine (kubuntu lucid).
The nvidia-settings's maintainer should add a dependancy to fix this bug.
Summary :
sudo aptitude update
sudo aptitude safe-upgrade
sudo aptitude install python-gtk2
sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf
sudo nvidia-xconfig
sudo
I'm running kubuntu 10.04 and had the same problem. First, it would fail
to parse the xorg.conf file, so i removed it and ran nvidia-xconfig. It
warned me that pkg-config was not found, so I installed it and ran
nvidia-xconfig again. Now nvidia-settings kept saying Unable to open X
config file
I have the same problem as #15 and #16.
I have already tried #10 and it did not work for me.

Fresh install of Karmic using the 195 driver also repeats the earlier symptom
of not being able to save the xorg.conf file. Running gksudo
/usr/bin/nvidia-settings lists a few lines that may help:

It's because you aren't running nvidia-settings as root; I get the
problem only when running as myself, when root the problem doesn't
appear. Run gksudo nvidia-settings

It is not correct, of course I know that I have to run as root,
otherwise the program cannot write xorg.conf. I did however find a
solution. Its not nvidia-settings, but rather the xorg.conf shipped with
karmic. I had to delete and regenerate xorg.conf. Afterwards it worked fine.

I tried running it under root and I still got the same problem.

Hugo,
How did you delete and regenerate xorg.conf? Did you just delete and relaunch
Nvidia Xserver settings? I get an error when trying to delete xorg.conf. Says
I don't have permission. I'm guessing its because I'm running the driver while
trying to delete it?
My linux knowledge is
Probably best to not be running X, yeah. Using sudo would probably
delete it, but start the PC in rescue mode anyway.
Vik :v)

The way to fix it:
*sudo rm /etc/X11/xorg.conf # Removes xorg.conf*
*sudo nvidia-xconfig # Generates new one
gksudo nvidia-settings # Make changes and save them.

Good luck! Hugo

Just done a clean install of Karmic, an apt-get upgreade used the
Hardware drivers to install the nvidia driver and got exactly the same
fault. This could make using twin screens awkward.

Confirmed here with a clean install of Karmic (64-bit) and the
restricted '185' driver installed by jockey.
-
apt-cache policy nvidia-glx-185
nvidia-glx-185:
Installed: 185.18.36-0ubuntu9
Candidate: 185.18.36-0ubuntu9

When run from a terminal nvidia-settings reports:

I think the issue may be in jockey if it is responsible for generating
the xorg.conf that omits the Device reference.
