Hi, thanks for reporting this issue during the development period of

Hi Axel,
This is not completely true. In Natty, it was possible to activate twinview on
2 external monitors if DFP-0 is disabled.
This was done via nvidia-settings.
However now, the nvidia-settings seems to crash when the same setup is applied.
Like Radu, I also experience this problem. I have

This is a problem, because as far as I know "Twin"-view (as the name implies)
is for dualmonitor-view only!

know the results.
