Public bug reported:

Ubuntu 11.10

X11 crashes on boot, when using a xorg.conf configured for nvidia
drivers.

I have tried the latest stable version and also have tried the 285 version.
To even boot in to my system in KDE I have to first delete my xorg.conf file.

I was able to get both monitors working, be it mirrored, by removing all
nvidia packages.

Very frustrating as this worked awesome on 11.04 with the 285 driver and
dual screens using twinview.
