[Bug 845159] [NEW] Selecting System Settings -> Displays with nvidia-current installed brings up Unknown "gnome-control-center display" window instead of prompting to launch nvidia-settings

 

Public bug reported:

In Natty and previous, when nvidia-current was installed, selecting
Displays would prompt to launch nvidia-settings instead of launching the
incompatible "gnome-control-center display" that simply displays
"Unknown".

Is this a bug or a feature? Shouldn't users be prompted to launch
nvidia-settings?
