  • Ubuntu and Widescreen monitor wih Nvidia drivers

    Hi all,

    I've recently purchased a new monitor, exactly a VX2025wm which is a 20,1 inches wide screen.

    The problem came when I wanted to change my resolution to 1680 x 1050. Every time I tried to load the "nvidia" driver all the tittle bars disappeared, I couldn't open a terminal, and in general it wasn't working properly. To solve it I had to load the "nv" driver which seems to be working better with it.

    I tried with nvidia-glx 1.0.9631 and 1.0.9755

    Anybody has faced the same problems and know how to fix it?

    Thanks everybody.

    remove all(or disable) desktop effects. install the official nvidia drivers, restart X, should be good.
