Alex Elder, this bug was reported a while ago and there hasn't been any activity in it recently. We were wondering if this is still an issue? If so, could you please test for this with the latest development release of Ubuntu? ISO images are available from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com /daily-live/current/ .
If it remains an issue, could you please run the following command in the development release from a Terminal (Applications->Accessories->Terminal), as it will automatically gather and attach updated debug information to this report: apport-collect -p xserver-xorg-video-nouveau REPLACE-WITH-BUG-NUMBER Please note, given that the information from the prior release is already available, doing this on a release prior to the development one would not be helpful. Thank you for your understanding.

My system is a Dell Latitude E6500 NVIDIA Quadro NVS 160M video Ubuntu 10.10 Linux doink 2.6.35-22-generic #33-Ubuntu SMP Sun Sep 19 20:32:27 UTC 2010 x86_64 GNU/Linux I am running with the built-in display (1920x1200) plus an external 1920x1200 display via one of the DVI connectors on a DELL EPort Plus docking station. A little while ago I attempted the same thing without the second monitor attached (and without the docking station) and the command showed me a window as I expected. This is a command I used routinely with the same hardware configuration prior to the upgrade. I can provide other information on request.
