[Bug 412538] Re: nvidia-settings wont detect an external monitor

 

** Description changed:

  The applet nvidia-settings does not detect my external flat panel. I
  have a Nvidia 9600M GT card, and tried using the drivers 173 and 180
  from ubuntu and 185 and 190 using the guide at
  http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1125400
  
  The panel is connect from my HDMI port on the PC throug and HDMI to DVI
  converter and finaly through a DVI cable.
  
  The monitor was detected yesterday by nvidia-settings, but today it is
  not detected at all. I have tried to boot with the screen plugged and
  unplugged, but no changes are seen.
  
  When I plug in the cable the screen goes black and display shortly "3:
  Digital Input Entering Power Save".
  
  Please help me to solve this problem.
