I had my 4 monitors set up nicely. I decided to upgrade last night and went 7.10->8.04 fine but after 8.04->8.10 my multi display no longer works.
Here is my xorg.conf:

#
# This file is automatically updated on xserver-xorg package upgrades *only*

It's now running on 2 monitors, cloned. Anyone got any ideas of where to go from here? I've had a quick play with the nvidia-settings but not got anywhere
Thanks,
Mike
