[Bug 157319] Re: Xlib: extension "RANDR" missing on display ":0.0" while using -nvidia with Xinerama turned on

 

> How can we help to further debug / fix this problem?

First, identify which source package produces the error message.  I did
a quick grep through libxrandr, libx11, gtk+2.0 and xorg-server but did
not see it.  Perhaps you'll have more luck locating what produces the
error.

Then, reassign this bug to that package.  libxrandr really is not the
right package for this; it's just an API wrapper around the RANDR
extension.

Regarding the assertion that it affects -intel and -ati... citation
needed.  I've done heavy testing on -ati and -intel and have *never*
seen this error message.  So I think before this can be claimed as a
general issue, the specific steps to reproduce on other drivers needs to
be defined.  Meanwhile, until someone can prove otherwise, I'm bumping
this back to the -nvidia queue.


** Package changed: libxrandr (Ubuntu) => nvidia-graphics-drivers
(Ubuntu)

** Changed in: nvidia-graphics-drivers (Ubuntu)
   Importance: Undecided => Medium
