#1 For the settings to be saved I need to run nvidia-settings from a
terminal with sudo and select not to merge with the old config two get
my new screen options saved.
#2 I'm unable to switch places with the screens , this setting does not
get saved. Forcing by editing the config file seams to have no effect.
- #3 Firefox cannot launch on the secondary screen , the desktop will just
- crash and restart itself and firefox will never startup
-
- #4 All applications launched from the menu and/or panel on the secondary
- screen ends up getting started on the primary screen.

I had the exact same problem with another Jaunty installation that used
a nvidia card. The workaround to that computer was to switch places with
the monitor cables , however this is not an option on this computer
since it's a laptop. And I edited the gnome terminal (and other
applications in the panel) with a defined "DISPLAY=" in properties.
