    [ubuntu] Re: NVIDIA X Server Settings

    Ubuntu now does some of this for the command line sudo in the same way the graphical one does so there isn't that much of a difference, this isn't the case on most other distros though where sudo...

    [ubuntu] Re: NVIDIA X Server Settings

    gksudo just gives you a nice pop up box to type in your password rather than having to type it in the terminal window. Other than that there isn't really any difference.

    [all variants] Re: Triple Monitor Setup

    Ah yes, I didn't notice that first time round. Well the log doesn't look like the ATI driver is even picking up the card with the sun3 monitor on it. As long as your sure that card work normally on...

    Hmmm, all those "not using default mode" lines may be refering to the 2nd monitor which means it can find any resolutions which work with it. Have you tried running two screens off of the NVIDIA card...

    That looks like you've done everything right, have you looked at the log in /var/log/Xorg.0.log to see if it has anything useful?
  8. [all variants] Re: [SOLVED] TwinView with 2 screens - How do I fullscreen on ONE screen when using V

    This is the fault of the nvidia closed source driver, the open source drivers such as intel don't have this problem. Although a quick way to restart X without restarting the whole machine is to press...
  9. [all variants] Re: TwinView with 2 screens - How do I fullscreen on ONE screen when using VLC?

    If the twinview configuration has been saved to /etc/X11/xorg.conf then it should be working how you want it to. Normally the situation you describe only occurs when the twinview configuration hasn't...

    In that case nvidia-settings may already be installed (as part of nvidia-glx-new), it should be in the preferences/administration menus, if not open a terminal (Somewhere in the applications menu,...

    [ubuntu] Re: Asus Xonar D2/PM supported?

    I did an Audigy2 ZS to Xonar D2 upgrade a couple of months ago and I don't remember having any problems. Its well worth the upgrade too as the Xonar D2 sounds much better :).
