| jeffrash | will my GeForce 210 dual monitor setup work in 11.04? | 03:53 |
|---|---|---|
| kowen | Good question; I'm not sure. Never set up dual monitors, myself. | 03:54 |
| jeffrash | It's worked fine in the last 4 versions, but I can't trust it | 03:54 |
| jeffrash | wireless and bluetooth on my laptop also had worked for the last 4 versions. | 03:55 |
| jeffrash | but not now, at least not without workarounds. | 03:55 |
| kowen | I'd err on the side of caution, then; seems that 11.04 has broken things for quite a number of people. | 03:56 |
| jeffrash | agreed | 03:56 |
| kowen | Personally, everything worked out fine for me, but my hardware is a bit on the "tried and true" side of things. | 03:56 |
| jeffrash | some how I ended up with alot of hardware with closed source drivers. | 03:57 |
| kowen | Mm, how fun. | 03:59 |
| kowen | And it's time for me to go. | 04:01 |
| kowen | Goodnight, everyone. :_ | 04:01 |
| kowen | *:), :P | 04:01 |
| holstein | jeffrash: ping | 04:41 |
| holstein | tell me about your Gforce210 | 04:41 |
| holstein | im interested in something dual head | 04:42 |
| holstein | with 10.04* | 04:42 |
| jeffrash | holstein : It's no biggy to setup | 15:58 |
| jeffrash | the card has 1 VGA, 1 DIGITAL, and 1 HDMI | 15:59 |
| jeffrash | I just installed the NVIDIA proprietary drivers and put one monitor on the VGA and one on the Digital output. | 16:00 |
| jeffrash | the driver utility detects both monitors and allows me to enable twinview. | 16:01 |
| jeffrash | done | 16:01 |
| jeffrash | I did have to run nvidia-settings as root to allow it to write to the xorg.conf. sudo /usr/bin/nvidia-settings | 16:03 |
| holstein | jeffrash: i need to dodge the proprietary drivers | 18:05 |
| jeffrash | holstein, oh, sorry. No 3D or effects without it for that card. | 19:25 |
| jeffrash | Theyre just the closed source drivers | 19:30 |
| holstein | jeffrash: 3d is not manditory | 20:32 |
| holstein | i just want dual head | 20:32 |
