So here’s a strange problem. If two monitors are connected to one GPU and we wanted to disable the secondary display we would normally set
option “TwinView” “false”
This worked fine for all drivers below 3xx.xx. We have recently upgraded to 319.23 and now if we have
option “TwinView” “false”
this is ignored and both screens act as if TwinView is enabled.
Upon opening the nvidia control panel it says TwinView is enabled despite being set to “false” in the xorg.conf.
The way we have got round this it is to change:
Option “MetaModes” “nvidia-auto-select, nvidia-auto-select”
to
Option “MetaModes” “nvidia-auto-select”
This is fine for us but why does
option “TwinView” “false”
get ignored?
Thanks,
Will
