Yes it is still an issue - the related bug (can't detect the monitor resolution correctly and ignores the EDID False directives) was fixed but this incredibly annoying bug remains.
It have tried upstream testing with a liveCD but this doesn't use the nvidia driver so the problem cannot be tested properly, if someone points to a simple way to test the live CD with the nvidea drivers I might be able to give this a whirl. BTW the live CD contains no example movie files and no codecs that could play any content I had - this pretty much wrecks the potential for testing video related bugs. I have also tried with the 290 series nvidia driver but the bug remains it is still unclear whether the video driver, kde or the video software / libraries are to blame. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/910973 Title: external monitors turn off when movie played To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux/+bug/910973/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
