** Description changed:

  After nvidia installation I got 6 screens on one display, I tried to
  install newest driver from nvidia.com but same thing. Looking on ubuntu
  forum I found this solution:
  
  edit /etc/X11/xorg.conf
  
  Look for Section ¨Device¨
  
  Add this line:
  
   Option "ModeValidation" "NoTotalSizeCheck"
  
  Restart X
  
  It´s solved at this way, but I think we should have this note on release
  notes for Jaunty at least, also if it´s possible the program nvidia-
  xconfig should detect the video card and add this line itself.
