Hello I ran into a problem after i recently upgraded to jaunty. I had my dual monitor setup with two seperate x screens but after the upgrade my secondary monitor (screen 1) is only showing up black. The courser will go over to the desktop and i can move files from one screen to the other with the mouse(cant see what im doing on the other monitor of corse). Also when the screen saver comes on it will show in both monitors. It is as if there is a layer of black on top of the desktop. I have tried to play around with all of the settings in compiz and in with my nvidia xserver settings.
Here is my xorg.conf
