Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: nvidia-settings
Using: kubuntu 8.10
I have:
* an old AOC Spectrum 7GlrA as a primary monitor
* a newly bought ViewSonic VA1616w as a secondary monitor
* an NVIDIA Inno3d GeForce 7600 GS
Since my primary monitor is old, I needed to tweak its color correction
values (make it brighter, lower red gamma value) in nvidia-settings,
while my secondary monitor is left with its default color values. Now
when I set it to Twinview, what happens is the color correction value
settings for my primary monitor is also applied to the secondary
monitor, making my secondary monitor too bright and unviewable. I
checked in nvidia-settings and indeed, the color correction settings for
the secondary monitor is gone. I think they should still be there so
users can still tweak color correction values for each monitor even
while in TwinView.
nvidia-settings:
Installed: 177.78-0ubuntu2.1
Candidate: 177.78-0ubuntu2.1
