Hello,
I bought a new Nvidia card and since then I've had several problems with my Ubuntu integration. First, I had some problems because it was freezing after booting. I gave up and stopped using Ubuntu for a while. One day, my computer restarted directly to ubuntu and it was magically working (GREAT). Now, I am trying to use my two Acer monitors. As of now, one monitor is working fine and the second one (which is located to left) is totally white and the mouse pointer shows a black "X" instead of the common white arrow (I am including this ifnroamtion because I noticed other people have had similar problems), I can move my pointer to the "white" monitor, but I cannot move different windows to the second monitor (there is a sort of boundary that stop the window from moving to the second monitor). I dont know if this is a known issue but any help would be most appreciated.
Attached is my xorg.conf file
Thanks
I am also including the log after running xrandrCode:# nvidia-settings: X configuration file generated by nvidia-settings # nvidia-settings: version 295.33 (buildd@allspice) Fri Mar 30 15:25:24 UTC 2012 Section "ServerLayout" Identifier "Layout0" Screen 0 "Screen0" RightOf "Screen1" Screen 1 "Screen1" 0 0 InputDevice "Keyboard0" "CoreKeyboard" InputDevice "Mouse0" "CorePointer" Option "Xinerama" "0" EndSection Section "Files" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Mouse0" Driver "mouse" Option "Protocol" "auto" Option "Device" "/dev/psaux" Option "Emulate3Buttons" "no" Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5" EndSection Section "InputDevice" # generated from default Identifier "Keyboard0" Driver "kbd" EndSection Section "Monitor" # HorizSync source: edid, VertRefresh source: edid Identifier "Monitor0" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Acer V223W" HorizSync 30.0 - 83.0 VertRefresh 56.0 - 76.0 Option "DPMS" EndSection Section "Monitor" # HorizSync source: edid, VertRefresh source: edid Identifier "Monitor1" VendorName "Unknown" ModelName "Acer S231HL" HorizSync 30.0 - 80.0 VertRefresh 55.0 - 75.0 Option "DPMS" EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Device0" Driver "nvidia" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" BoardName "GeForce GTX 550 Ti" BusID "PCI:7:0:0" Screen 0 EndSection Section "Device" Identifier "Device1" Driver "nvidia" VendorName "NVIDIA Corporation" BoardName "GeForce GTX 550 Ti" BusID "PCI:7:0:0" Screen 1 EndSection Section "Screen" # Removed Option "metamodes" "DFP-0: 1680x1050_60_1 +0+0; DFP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0" Identifier "Screen0" Device "Device0" Monitor "Monitor0" DefaultDepth 24 Option "TwinView" "0" Option "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" "DFP-0" Option "metamodes" "DFP-0: 1680x1050_60_0 +0+0; DFP-0: 1680x1050_60_1 +0+0; DFP-0: nvidia-auto-select +0+0" SubSection "Display" Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Screen1" Device "Device1" Monitor "Monitor1" DefaultDepth 24 Option "TwinView" "0" Option "TwinViewXineramaInfoOrder" "DFP-2" Option "metamodes" "DFP-2: 1920x1080 +0+0" SubSection "Display" Depth 24 EndSubSection EndSection
PS: I tried to include a Shutter capture of my whole desktop but it only takes the one that is working fine.Code:xrandr: Failed to get size of gamma for output default Screen 0: minimum 320 x 175, current 1680 x 1050, maximum 1680 x 1050 default connected 1680x1050+0+0 0mm x 0mm 1680x1050 50.0 51.0 52.0* 1600x1024 53.0 1440x900 54.0 55.0 1400x1050 56.0 57.0 58.0 1360x768 59.0 60.0 1280x1024 61.0 62.0 63.0 1280x960 64.0 65.0 1280x800 66.0 1152x864 67.0 68.0 69.0 70.0 71.0 72.0 73.0 1024x768 74.0 75.0 76.0 77.0 78.0 79.0 960x720 80.0 81.0 960x600 82.0 960x540 83.0 928x696 84.0 85.0 896x672 86.0 87.0 840x525 88.0 89.0 90.0 91.0 92.0 832x624 93.0 800x600 94.0 95.0 96.0 97.0 98.0 99.0 100.0 101.0 102.0 103.0 800x512 104.0 720x450 105.0 720x400 106.0 700x525 107.0 108.0 109.0 110.0 680x384 111.0 112.0 640x512 113.0 114.0 115.0 640x480 116.0 117.0 118.0 119.0 120.0 121.0 122.0 123.0 640x400 124.0 640x350 125.0 576x432 126.0 127.0 128.0 129.0 130.0 131.0 132.0 512x384 133.0 134.0 135.0 136.0 137.0 416x312 138.0 400x300 139.0 140.0 141.0 142.0 143.0 360x200 144.0 320x240 145.0 146.0 147.0 148.0 320x200 149.0 320x175 150.0
Thanks again...
UPDATE
I have made it work.
I ran
and click on "Enable Xinerama"Code:sudo nvidia-settings
Both Monitors are working now, but in Unity 2d.
Wow.... I really love Unity 3d.. does anyone know how to bring it back?
Thanks
