apport information ** Tags added: apport-collected oneiric ubuntu
** Description changed: 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 + --- + ApportVersion: 1.23-0ubuntu4 + Architecture: i386 + DistroCodename: oneiric + DistroRelease: Ubuntu 11.10 + DistroVariant: ubuntu + EcryptfsInUse: Yes + InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 11.04 "Natty Narwhal" - Release i386 (20110427.1) + NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia + Package: nvidia-graphics-drivers (not installed) + ProcEnviron: + PATH=(custom, user) + LANG=en_US.UTF-8 + SHELL=/bin/bash + ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.0.0-12.20-generic-pae 3.0.4 + Tags: oneiric ubuntu + Uname: Linux 3.0.0-12-generic-pae i686 + UnreportableReason: Please work this issue through technical support channels first. + UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to oneiric on 2011-11-16 (14 days ago) + UserGroups: adm admin backup cdrom dialout lpadmin plugdev root sambashare ** Tags added: regression-update ** Description changed: 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.
