Oh?? There is a law saying "Don't run nvidia-settings" as a superuser? Nonsense. So long as it requires the sudo password, there is no reason not to do so except FUD. It is far better to have nvidia-settings write to xorg-conf than to have a novice doing so through a terminal editor.
BTW, if you haven't been affected by the bug, it is probably because you haven't changed anything that required saving xorg-conf. The app runs fine otherwise. -- nvidia-settings doesn't have permissions to write xorg.conf https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/200868 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
