Public bug reported: I recently stepped up my machine to Ubuntu 140.04. Prior to the move, I was running with NVidia proprietary drivers.
Today I decided to go back to the X.org drivers - however it appears there is some issue that is preventing the XServer from correctly identifying my displays. It presently only uses a single display (I have two), with the wrong resolution. It also identifies the display as "Default" and does not allow me to change resolution, etc. I noted the same issue on my laptop, where the display is identified as "Default" when I use the Nouveau driver. On my workstation I have a NVIDIA Corporation G94 [GeForce 9600 GT] (rev a1). On my laptop I have a NVIDIA Corporation G98M [Quadro NVS 160M] (rev a1).
