missing logfiles.

Twinview was given up in favour of RandR. This means ful
systemcompatibilty. Nvidia-settings should be used any furthers only in
rare cases.

System provided GUI-tools should be able to help on Dual-screen
configuration in ful.

Title:
  nvidia-settings freeze on activating TwinView

Status in “nvidia-settings” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This bug still affects me.

  When I try to activate my secondary display the nvidia-settings software will freeze when i choose the option "TwinView".
  After killing the program I cant start it in this session again, so I have to logout und relogin then.

  My system:
  Notebook: Dell Latitude E6420
  Videocard: NVIDIA Quadro NVS 4200M 
  Architecture: amd64

  The issues I'm experiencing are exactly the same as in bug #873375 
  The proposed fixes are not working. Neither in 11.10 nor in 12.04 (inculuding all current updates)
