[Bug 1394189] Re: [Samsung NP-RF711-S07UK] Nvidia proprietary driver stopped working after ubuntu 14.04 updates from 18 November 2014

 

Larry, you would want to start with the readme that comes with the
driver, as well as https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaManual .

Title:
  [Samsung NP-RF711-S07UK] Nvidia proprietary driver stopped working
  after ubuntu 14.04 updates from  18 November 2014

Status in nvidia-graphics-drivers-331-updates package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  Dual Screen not working on 14.04 when I log in today.  Get error
  message:

  Failed to apply configuration: %s

  GDBus.Error:org.gtk.GDBus.UnmappedGError.Quark._gnome_2drr_2derror_2dquark.Code2:
  could not set the configuration for CRTC 63

  Yesterday I applied updates.  Ubuntu software history shows these as:

  bsdutils(2.20.1-5.1ubuntu20.2,2.20.1-5.1ubuntu20.3)
  xserver-xorg-video-intel(2.99.910-0ubuntu1.2,2.99.910-0ubuntu1.3)

  Previous to this I have had no problems with dual screen on 14.04.

  WORKAROUND: Reverted to the Nouveau driver. The nvidia driver 331.38
  previously worked but doesn't now after the above Ubuntu updates.
