You have been subscribed to a public bug: After upgrading from 11.04 to 11.10, the nVidia card 'forgets' that I have TwinView active, and restricts the display to one out of two monitors only.
One way to reproduce: 1) Start NX Client session (I use this to connect to my other machine), set the NX window to one screen 2) Start Picasa 3 on other window. When Picasa starts up, the screens flicker. Next, all windows are back to 1 screen only, other screen contains a frozen last displayed frame. nVidia X server settings says: Driver version: 280.13 X server vendor version 1.10.4 X.Org NV-CONTROL version 1.27 Graphics card GeForce 8600M GT ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Incomplete ** Tags: bot-comment nvidia twinview -- nVidia forgets that TwinView is on https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/898044 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-graphics-drivers 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
