Seems to be related to this bug https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-video-intel/+bug/267269
I had the NVIDIA install on my desktop and ran "sudo ./NVIDIA-Linux-x86_64-260.19.12.run --uninstall" Then brought the system back up and I was no longer mirrored and upside down. However I came up with no window manager loaded. Selecting normal Visual Effects resulted in a failure to load but it brought Metacity up. Trying to load compiz in a terminal results in: error while loading shared libraries: libGL.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory. I do not have an xorg.conf file for this setup... However my wife's lappy with an intel card and no xorg.conf is working just fine with Compiz and flash. ~Brett On Mon, Nov 1, 2010 at 1:59 PM, Brett Howard <[email protected]> wrote: > Ok weird!
