Ubuntu 12.04 Precise with ppa:unity-team/sru
Issue: Nvidia machine not detecting 2nd monitor.
Additional info:- Did a fresh install of 12.04 and ran the updates, installed
nvidia-current driver.
In Nvidia X server settings, both monitors were shown as diabled. I set both to
twin view and restarted the machine. This did not help.
Now opening Nvidia X server settings shows this message "You do not appear to
be using the Nvidia X driver. Please edit your X configuration file (just run
'nvidia-xconfig as root), and restart the X server".
O/P of command jockey-text -l:
xorg:nvidia_173 - NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (Proprietary, Enabled, In
use)
xorg:nvidia_173_updates - NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (post-release
updates) (Proprietary, Disabled, Not in use)
xorg:nvidia_current - NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (Proprietary,
Disabled, Not in use)
xorg:nvidia_current_updates - NVIDIA accelerated graphics driver (post-release
