Hi Is anyone here using NVIDIA display drivers and a TwinView configuration on their systems? I've got a bit of an issue with such a setup, which started occurring after a recent driver update: I have a laptop that's normally connected to an external monitor (a Samsung SyncMaster), where this monitor and the built-in display on the laptop are set up with a TwinView configuration. The

Ok, this isn't really a simple thing to describe so I'll state the basic problem first and things I've noticed that are most likely associated with it. The problem is while playing World of Warcraft on a Twinview activated X-Server, the camera will do random jumps around my character when the mouse is clicked. Now by 'random' I actually mean a few things: 1. This

Hi, I am running ubuntu 7.10 gutsy, and I have compiz working on one monitor ( a bit slow though ). When I add twinview to the mix compiz still comes up, and sort of works but: 1. I loose the background and it is replace by all white 2. The second monitor draws about 30% of the new white background, then it ends with a bit of a shadow, and then it continues with black 3.

The command I run (important bits):- Code: wine explorer /desktop=civ4,1280x800 Civ4BeyondSword.exe My system has twinview running, an external monitor (1280x1024) and my laptop LCD (1280x800). Gnome sees it as one large monitor of 2560x1024, my monitor is on the left, my LCD on the right. Even though I start wine from the laptop monitor, it starts up (with indicated resolution) on the

Hi, Is anyone here using TwinView with NVIDIA graphics drivers under CentOS 5? Just tried this configuration (I've been using dual monitors as separate X screens in the past), and while it works in a sense, there are a few issue that will probably prevent me from using it for real. Notably, which screen new applications start on (when using the Applications menu or panel launchers) seems to

I seem to be having a video update issue with Popcap games on Steam using Twinview. Has anyone else run into this problem? (I did try to search for a resolution of the issue, but perhaps my search mojo is lacking.) Situation: Run Steam, Install game (Insaniquarium! Delux), Start Game Symptom: Game starts windowed. Display only updates when I click on it. (i.e Click on Options button, click in

Hi, I'm testing compiz with nvidia driver 9629. twinview active on 2 monitor(same resolution on both 1280x1024)and I found a strange behaviour, when I try to lock the screen only the primary monitor get the screensaver instead on the second monitor I can still move windows and see it's content. Best regards, Emilio Pozzulo

In my current setup, using Compiz Fusion under Ubuntu with TwinView (Xgl w/ Xinerama flag set), I've noticed some strange behavior coming from the Place Windows plug-in. First off, under Compiz, windows are placed depending on what screen they're executed from, i.e. execute gedit from the left monitor and it positions there, execute it from the right monitor and it positions there

Hello, As a Gentoo user i met an issue regarding Eve Online (maybe other games, I don't play that much). For years, I've been using compiz (0.8.4) to enable fullscreen on a single display (dual display using TwinView), as I have serious issues using xinerama. To do so, I'm using a compiz window rule checking for every EVE titled app. But the trick do not work anymore since wine

I asked on the Gentoo forums, and surprisingly haven't gotten an answer. When I run xrandr, I get this output: Code: Screen 0: minimum 2960 x 1050, current 2960 x 1050, maximum 2960 x 1050 default connected 2960x1050+0+0 0mm x 0mm 2960x1050 50.0* I'm using TwinView with a 1680x1050 monitor and a 1280x1024 monitor. And I want to set up some different modes in xrandr. When

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Bonjour, I have two monitors and an nvidia graphic card. I uses the nvidia proprietary driver from rpmfusion and have configured the system to use the twinview option. I need to load an icc profile for each screen (they are not exactly the same) and this seems to be impossible under this configuration.... Am I right? So I changed my config:

Dear Gordan, I have a Gigabyte Geforce GTX 560. Is it possible to mod it into a Quadro? If it is possible, please give me the link with the list of steps to mod it into a Quadro. Is it a simple process? Thank you very much. -- Yours sincerely, Singapore Citizen Mr. Teo En Ming (Zhang Enming)

I just wanted to drop a note to say that I have managed to get VGA passthrough working with multiple cards and domUs. The cards I am using are quasi Quadro 5000 (modified GTX470) and quasi Quadro 6000 (modified GTX480). (Here is an older article about modified GTS450 modified to Quadro 2000 if anyone is interested:

Hi, I just got a new Samsung 226bw 22" wide monitor to replace my previous one. I also have a nvidia 8600gts video card. I can set interactively [through the nvidia-settings utility] the 1680 by 1050 resolution. I have saved the settings in the xorg.conf, but I can't keep it after a restart of X or a reboot. When I restart X, the login is at: 1680 by 1050, then it switches to 1280 by

Hi. Is anyone here running CentOS 6 with dual monitors configured as a single X Screen? I'm trying such a setup on version 5 (again), using NVIDIA TwinView, and it works in many ways, but there are a number of problems that means it's not too usable - the most important one being that there appears to be no way to control which of the displays new applications/windows will appear

Hi, I've noticed, now that I'm using twinview, that when I click any other window outside of the Wine desktop (Civ4 or WCIII normally), I can click back to the Wine desktop but can no longer use any of the keyboard shortcuts. Things work fine before actually clicking outside the wine window (for example, on my Pidgin chat window). This happens whether the app is run in windowed mode or

Hi I have found that utorrent doesn't display its systray icon unless I switch from dual screen to single screen. When I login to twinview the systray icon is missing but if I use nvidia-settings I can switch to a single screen. and back and have a systray icon. However if I restart utorrent it will be as before and no systray icon. Should I file a bug report here(bugzilla) or with

Hi, In detectRefreshRateOfScreen(), we have s->redrawTime = 1000 / s->opt[COMP_SCREEN_OPTION_REFRESH_RATE].value.i; When the refresh rate is autodetected through RandR's XRRConfigCurrentRate function, 0 can be returned in certain cases, leading to division by zero. An example of this situation would be the DynamicTwinView option in the nVidia proprietary drivers[0] (note that this
