Public bug reported:
After weeks of happily chugging along I made the gigantic mistake of
actually allowing you guys to update me again. I get burned by every
single one of these. They always break something.
So the new trick is the nvidia drivers. I was using Xinerama with dual
monitors and going along happily. After the update I rebooted and now
everything says there is no second monitor. I have a dual head dvi-out
nvidia 8800.
When launching X i get the error "unable to find available display
devices for screen 1." Running nvidia-settings shows no second monitor
even being detected. Everything I try uniformly tells me there is no
second monitor.
I've been really patient with these updates, but I'm about at the end of
my patience. Updates should not consistently break the OS.
