** Description changed: Curently using Ubuntu Karmic amd64, but preparing to upgrade to Lucid shortly. When connecting an external monitor to the analogue VGA port on the laptop (Sony Vaio VGN-FE41Z) or the replicated port on the docking station, the Nvidia driver adds a warning to the Xorg log: (WW) NVIDIA(0): ACPI: Error: Unable to find the DOS (Enable/Disable output (WW) NVIDIA(0): switching) file path under /proc/acpi/video. The NVIDIA X (WW) NVIDIA(0): driver will not be able to respond to ACPI display change (WW) NVIDIA(0): hotkey events. I noticed bug #339558 reported the same for the 180 driver but the original reporter never followed up. lspci -nn | grep VGA 01:00.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: nVidia Corporation G73 [GeForce Go 7600] [10de:0398] (rev a1) + + apt-cache policy nvidia-glx-185 + nvidia-glx-185: + Installed: 185.18.36-0ubuntu9 + Candidate: 185.18.36-0ubuntu9 + Version table: + *** 185.18.36-0ubuntu9 0 + 500 http://gb.archive.ubuntu.com karmic/restricted Packages + 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
