[Bug 286424] Re: nvidia-settings crashes when user clicks Save To X Configuration File
I was also experiencing the same issue with saving to xorg.conf via sudo nvidia-settings command. nvidia-xconfig yeiled same results.. Peculiar ! I then decided to try v.173 drivers with no success (flashing screen before and after sudo nvidia-xconfig and sudo nvidia-settings) I then had to boot in console mode to remove v.173 drivers. using sudo apt-get remove nvidia-glx-173 I then used sudo apt-get install nvidia-glx-185 to reinstall drivers in console mode (no X) . Works! Server Layout option was present in etc/x11/xorg.conf after install and reboot without the need for sudo nvidia-xconfig and sudo nvidia-settings commands.. Running dual monitors perfectly after configuring them through the nvidia-settings gui and saving (sudo priv necessary as always) I would suggest this method if previous tactics fail.

[Bug 286424] Re: nvidia-settings crashes when user clicks Save To X Configuration File
Well so much for all that. After submitting above comments I was alerted with the crash warning.. Weird that it took a while, However settings are saved as they should.Everything works and saves correctly but a crash warning is issued some time after successfully editing and saving to xorg.conf. Confusing but hey it works.. -- nvidia-settings crashes when user clicks Save To X Configuration File https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/286424 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
