Public bug reported:
I have a laptop with an external monitor attached to it
with the 180.27 nvidia driver, the nvidia-settings program is unable to extend
my desktop to the second screen. It seems to detect the screen just fine, but
obviously fails to set the meta mode.
Here the corresponding error:
"Failed to set MetaMode (1) 'CRT-0: nvidia-auto-select @1920x1200 +1680+0,
DFP-0: 1680x1050 @1680x1050 +0+0' (Mode 3600x1200, id: 65) on X screen 0
Would you like to remove this MetaMode?"
I get this for any combination of screen resolutions. With the old 173.XX
drivers under hardy everything works just fine.
My laptop is a lenovo T61 with a nvidia quadro nvs140 card.
