Title:
  Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!

Status in Mactel Support:
  New
Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  On a MacBookPro 5,1 and a clean install of Karmic, 64-bit the steps to
  repeat are:

  System > Administration > NVIDIA X Settings > X Server Display
  Configuration > (Set things for external LCD... ) > Apply > Save to X
  Configuration File

  will result in:

  Failed to parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!

  The same when launching from the terminal as a superuser. In the past
  (under Jaunty 64-bit, at least) the superuser "method" was working.

  
  Output of:

  [1] uname - a: Linux vertical 2.6.31-14-generic #48-Ubuntu SMP Fri Oct 16 14:05:01 UTC 2009 x86_64 GNU/Linux
  [2] cat /proc/version_signature, [3] dmesg and [4] sudo lspci -vnvn (will be) attached as files.
