Hi all, I have a fairly strange problem to report. Sorry in advance if this not the right place for this, but I'm very confused. I tried to connect to a projector today, and long story short, I could't use the nvidia 'twin view' setting for my purposes, i had to use the nvidia-settings tool to change xorg.conf and restart X to get my second display to work.
Unfortunately, this didn't behave as expected, and I could only get the projector display to show up, and the laptop screen was completely off, no backlight or anything, off in the same way it goes off when the display goes to sleep. I abandoned my attempts to get the projector to work, and when I restarted my laptop, the display was behaving the same way, with the laptop screen turning completely off. It works fine until after i log in (using lightdm to log in and start e) but once I log in the display shuts down. I replaced my xorg.conf file with a backed up version, but the problem persists. Even more curious, the enlightenment processes are indeed running (enlightenment_start, enlightenment, and e_fm), and the Xorg log files don't show anything obviously wrong. I suspect this is problem caused by something that nvidia-settings tool changed, somehow disabling the display and looking for the second projector display. But I can't use nvidia-settings without a desktop environment! If anyone has any idea how to get my display back it would be much appreciated! - Will ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
