Bug description:
Description:
When running 2 Nvidia video cards Xinerama is needed to seamlessly
span all screens. When Xinerama is enabled this causes the panel to
turn black and the 'dash' start flickering. Several screen shots are
included
Steps to reproduce:
1) Install nvidia drivers (nvidia-current or nvidia-current-updates or
drivers from Nvidia site)
2) Run nvidia-settings and enable all monitors on video cards
3) Enable xinerama using nvidia-settings
4) Log out or reboot. Log in, click on dash and symptoms will start.
Note:
This couldn't be tested using the nouveu drivers due to it not properly
handling full resolution on a single monitor.
