[Bug 432779] Re: X won't start with 2 monitors plugged in

 

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: xserver-xorg-video-nouveau
  
  If I have 2 monitors plugged in during boot (in this case, my laptop
  screen and a DVI screen), the console boot phase works great, then when
  X starts, it seems to crash, then restart, and continuously restart with
  no way to stop it (even unplugging the 2nd monitor at this point does
  nothing).
  
  With only the 1 monitor plugged in at boot (the laptop screen), X starts
  fine. I can then plug in the 2nd monitor, and use the display applet to
  enable it, and all is good.
  
  I'm using Ubuntu Karmic on amd64.
  
  xserver-xorg-video-nouveau is Version: 1:0.0.10~git+20090823+569a17a-
