[Bug 785370] [NEW] nvidia-settings won't save configuration

 

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: nvidia-settings

I'm running nvidia-settings via sudo, so it has the permissions to save
the file.

When I click "Save to X Configuration File", a popup saying "Failed to
parse existing X config file '/etc/X11/xorg.conf'!" appears. At the same
time, the following error appears in console:

VALIDATION ERROR:  Data incomplete in file /etc/X11/xorg.conf.
Device section "Default Device" must have a Driver line.

When I click OK in the dialog box, it gives me an option to save anyway.
Also, it's worth noting that Apply button does it job and applies
changes.

The problem started after upgrade to Natty. I'm running Kubuntu x64.
