i'm seeing this in 12.04, 12.10 and 13.04, too. $ lspci | grep -i vga 04:00.0 VGA compatible controller: NVIDIA Corporation G98 [Quadro NVS 450] (rev a1)

I was thinking that in 12.10 compiz would be able to work on my 4-screen setup - doesn't. Experimental drivers don't make this experience any better, unfortunately. With nouveau drivers i can't even use more than 2 displays, compiz won't work either, crashes upon start. I'm stuck with a manually installed gnome-panel and metacity, which didn't come with 12.10 what can i do to make compiz work on a 4-monitor setup with this interface? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/889559 Title: unity does not work for multiple monitors To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/compiz/+bug/889559/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
