1) As Nvidia Customer Care team suggested, I manually installed driver 304.123 (instructions at http://askubuntu.com/questions/451221/ubuntu-14-04-install-nvidia-driver, answer nº 23). 2) Running gksudo nvidia-settings enabled me to change my screen resolution, but my nettings were not being preserved after rebooting my machine. 3) I went to System Settings --> Monitors, and changed my screen resolution from there. My new settings were preserved after rebooting this time.
It seems driver 304.123 solves the issue, but it's not available for Trusty yet. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to nvidia-settings in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1388430 Title: nvidia-settings closes when pressing 'Apply' button, but changes aren't applied To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/nvidia-settings/+bug/1388430/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
