Public bug reported: On my (and other people's) non-Optimus system(s), installing nvidia-331 also pulls in nvidia-prime via a "recommends" dependency.
While the nvidia-prime package is installed, /etc/X11/xorg.conf is consistently deactivated by appending the current date to the filename. Any custom dual-screen settings and the like are therefore disabled and re-disabled with every X restart. Ubuntu 14.04, amd64, nvidia-331 331.38-0ubuntu5 ** Affects: nvidia-graphics-drivers-331 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1293789 Title: package nvidia-331 removes xorg.conf To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-graphics-drivers-331/+bug/1293789/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
