I booted into the live cd and successfully configured and ran a xinerama
setup using the nvidia drivers
Here is a summary of the packages which are different that might be
causing this crash:
--- Package Name ----|-- Live CD -- | -- Install -- |
xsever-xorg | ubuntu patch 6 | ubuntu patch 10
linux-restricted-modules-common | 2.6.22-3.10.1 | 2.6.22-4.12.3
linux-restricted-modules-'uname -r' | 2.6.22.3-10.1 | 2.6.22.4-12.3 *
* which is providing nvidia kernels:
- Livecd Provides: nvidia-kernel-1.0.9639, nvidia-kernel-1.0.7185,
nvidia-kernel-100.14.11
- Current Install Provides: nvidia-kernel-1.0.9639,
nvidia-kernel-1.0.7185, nvidia-kernel-100.14.19
libxinerama1 same same
nvidia-glx same same
I have tried booting into the original gutsy kernel 2.6.22-10, but i'm unable
to install the linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-10 as it's been taken out of the
repository.
"Package linux-restricted-modules-2.6.22-10-generic has no available version,
but exists in the database."
I don't think twinview is really any option for people who don't have a
multihead graphics card, I believe it relies on both heads being on the
one board, where as with my setup, and others, there are actually 2
physical graphics cards.
** Attachment added: "dpkg -s outputs from live cd w/working xinerama"
