Public bug reported: I've just added a new screen to my system. I have an NVidia graphics adapter. I tried adjusting the settings from the NVidia settings manager to use separate screens. It required to restart X. so I did, actually I restarted the whole computer at a point. But whenever I login I keep getting tons of "Starting File Manager" in the window list applet. Also the Xorg process is hogging at least %80 of my CPU.
There is no way so far to stop this, except for getting back to the twin-view mode ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 10.04 Package: xserver-xorg-core 2:1.7.6-2ubuntu7 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 2.6.32-22.33-generic 2.6.32.11+drm33.2 Uname: Linux 2.6.32-22-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia Architecture: amd64 CheckboxSubmission: f1b15b20a09c88034055ebde1ac7d6a2 CheckboxSystem: d00f84de8a555815fa1c4660280da308 Date: Sun May 9 10:54:21 2010 DkmsStatus: nvidia-current, 195.36.24, 2.6.32-22-generic, x86_64: installed ExecutablePath: /usr/bin/Xorg InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 9.10 "Karmic Koala" - Release amd64 (20091027) MachineType: Dell Inc.
