Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-settings

nvidia-settings uses pkg-config and python-gtk2 to read/write xorg.conf.

If they are not installed, nvidia-settings will work mostly fine (you
can choose new resolutions, configure dual screen, etc and apply
changes) but when you try to save your configuration, it will either not
write anything, or write a corrupt xorg.conf.

This is mostly noticed on Kubuntu because python-gtk2 is not needed on
Kubuntu, and pkg-config will only be installed by developers.

This is probably the root cause of bugs LP 439192 and LP 286424
