    Thanks to the advice in this thread, I now finally have Ubuntu 12.04 / Unity 3D working on my single nVidia graphics card connected to two screens (DVI & VGA), by using TwinView as opposed to Xinerama (and the nvidia-current driver).

    Hi!, All.

    There is a new nvidia driver version 295.53 available from nvidia downloads. This Link is for the 32 bit version, check you get the correct one.
    http://www.nvidia.co.uk/object/linux...driver-uk.html

    Edit: Updated Thursday May 17th;

    Code:
    nvidia-installer --latest
    now returns: v295.53 and the currently installed version, without altering anything.


    Code:
    nvidia-installer -f
    will install 295.53 after un-installing the previous version.

    NVNews says of version 295.53:
